Deutsche Telekom MMS has partnered with Meta Pool to operate a validator node on the NEAR Protocol, boosting NEAR’s network security and reliability.
Deutsche Telekom MMS has partnered with Meta Pool as part of its Enterprise Node Operator (ENO) program, marking a significant milestone in the advancement of decentralized technology.
Consequently, Deutsche Telekom MMS is the first telecommunications giant to administer a validator node on the NEAR blockchain. This partnership not only improves the security and decentralization of NEAR’s network, but also heralds a new era of enterprise-driven blockchain adoption, which is being propelled by Meta Pool.
Meta Pool, a pioneer in liquid staking solutions on NEAR, established the ENO program to facilitate the connection between established industry leaders and the decentralized ecosystem. Deutsche Telekom’s participation in this initiative provides NEAR with enterprise-grade infrastructure, which enhances network performance and reliability.
This partnership represents a significant milestone in Meta Pool’s endeavor to revolutionize the decentralized ecosystem by enhancing NEAR’s technology to new levels of scalability and security through trusted industry partnerships.
About Meta Pool
Meta Pool is a DAO with multi-chain governance that operates on Ethereum and NEAR, and it is a multi-chain liquid staking ecosystem. It offers governance rewards through Vote-to-Earn, liquid staking tokens on Ethereum, NEAR, Solana, Aurora, ICP, and Q, and the first restaking aggregator for Solana, which supports mpSOL, jitoSOL, bSOL, and SOL. Meta Pool simplifies and facilitates liquid staking across numerous blockchains, with plans for future growth.
A Partnership for Blockchain and Decentralized AI Innovation
Meta Pool’s ENO program was developed to establish a robust and resilient network on NEAR by establishing partnerships with industry leaders, thereby bridging the gap between traditional and decentralized worlds. Deutsche Telekom provides NEAR with the necessary resources by participating in this initiative.
infrastructure to facilitate the scaling of decentralized applications, thereby facilitating the development of new technologies in artificial intelligence, blockchain scalability, and multi-chain interoperability. Deutsche Telekom is making strides toward reimagining the future of decentralized networks by utilizing Meta Pool’s ENO program as its foundation.
“NEAR stands out as an ecosystem that shares our vision of combining blockchain and AI with a decentralized approach that prioritizes data privacy and security,” said Oliver Nyderle, Head of Digital Trust & Web3 Infrastructure at Deutsche Telekom MMS. “Together, we’re breaking new ground and building a future that connects these technologies in ways never seen before.”
Meta Pool, Deutsche Telekom, and NEAR: Establishing a Decentralized, User-First Future
In a time when data sovereignty and transparency are of the utmost importance, Meta Pool’s ENO program integrates companies such as Deutsche Telekom into the NEAR network, thereby securing blockchain and AI solutions that empower users. This partnership establishes the foundation for a future that prioritizes privacy and is decentralized, as it is led by industry executives who are dedicated to the transformative potential of blockchain.
“This partnership is a turning point for NEAR, Meta Pool, and our Enterprise Node Operator program,” said Claudio Cossio, Meta Pool’s co-founder. “With Deutsche Telekom’s world-class infrastructure expertise, we’re taking NEAR’s protocol to unprecedented levels of decentralization and resilience.”
A Unique Foundation for Decentralized Innovation: The NEAR Protocol
NEAR is a Layer 1 blockchain that is both environmentally sustainable and high-performance, and it was designed to host decentralized applications for millions of users. NEAR is a “green” alternative within blockchain technology, as it facilitates quick, energy-efficient transactions through its distinctive sharding technology.
NEAR is consistent with Meta Pool’s objective to promote blockchain solutions that are both eco-friendly and accessible, thereby fostering a more inclusive digital future.
Deutsche Telekom’s leadership in decentralized AI is further solidified by its acquisition of cutting-edge blockchain insights through Meta Pool’s ENO program. This partnership is indicative of a shared dedication to investigating the potential of Web3, which will pave the way for a digital world that is more transparent, secure, and innovative.
