Hey @Cliff,

Below is a little more information about us.

Entity Information:

Entity Name and Location: Staking Cabin (https://stakingcabin.com), Dubai, UAE.
Infrastructure Location: Multiple cloud-based locations with different service providers.

Node Infrastructure Deployment:

We engage in discussions with the protocol team and other validator service providers to determine the most suitable deployment locations for our node infrastructure. Our objective is to achieve network decentralization, considering options across Asia, Europe, and America.

At StakingCabin, we have a dedicated team of 7 professionals with extensive expertise in blockchain technology. Additionally, our engineering team has been deeply getting involved with blockchain infrastructure deployment and maintenance for over 5 years.

Other Network Validators:

Please visit our website (https://stakingcabin.com/) to view the current Mainnet validators we are running. Additionally, we are running over 25 Testnet validators, which are not displayed on the website.

Suggested Practices for dYdX:

Testing, Testing, Testing: Prior to the network going live, thorough testing is essential. The foundation should conduct rigorous assessments to identify and address bugs, security vulnerabilities, and scalability concerns. Avoiding any surprises once the network is operational.

Avoid Rushed Deployments: Understanding the importance of proper testing and addressing critical issues before launching a Testnet or Mainnet. Rushing the deployment process can lead to unforeseen vulnerabilities, security breaches, and other complications.
