Greetings, 2023!

Cosmonauts and hunters, let’s wrap up our previous year and highlight some of our most important adaptations to the ever-shifting climate of cryptocurrencies.

While it’s true that we have seen a lot of murky waters in different events happening all around us, still, 2022 marked a year of constant expansion for us on all levels.

We have managed to add active validators on 16 mainnets and 10 different testnets. Let’s explore the list!

Networks

Mainnets
Cosmos┊Juno┊Evmos┊Stride┊Nomic┊Sommelier┊Crescent
Gravity Bridge┊LUM Network┊Chihuahua┊Pylons
Rebus Chain┊Teritori┊DIG┊Desmos┊Cerberus

Testnets
Source Protocol┊Axelar Testnets (Casablanca, Lisbon)
Mun Blockchain┊Bware Labs┊Pylons Testnet┊Celestia┊Aura
Uptick Network┊Humans.Ai

We have, of course, participated in everything ICS related! As far as Interchain Security’s initiative goes, we have been on Neutron’s Quark Testnet and have scored high on Game of Chains testnet by ranking in one of the top 10 validators.

Infrastructure

Our currently deployed infrastructure covers a lot more than what we have mentioned, as we are getting ready to add more projects to our list and we like building ahead of time. We’re gearing up for new opportunities.

Speaking of infrastructure, we might have already mentioned in our Cosmos Profile that we are running a significant number of IBC relayers and more:

  1. Carbon Network relayed with: Cosmos, Evmos, Osmosis
    2. Cosmos Network relayed with: Evmos, Osmosis, Stride, Carbon Network
    3. Osmosis Network relayed with: Evmos, Sommelier, Stride, Carbon
    4. Evmos Network relayed with: Cosmos, Osmosis, Carbon
    5. Sommelier Finance Network relayed with: Osmosis
    6. Crescent Network relayed with: Cosmos, Osmosis, Gravity Bridge, Evmos, Axelar
    7. Axelar Network relayed with: Evmos, Cosmos, Osmosis, Carbon
    8. Gravity Bridge relayed with: Evmos, Osmosis, Cosmos, Juno
    9. Juno Network relayed with: Cosmos, Osmosis, Evmos, Gravity Bridge, Axelar, Stride, Carbon
    10. Stride relayed with: Osmosis, Cosmos

Additionally, we made sure to add RPC, REST, GRPC, State Sync, JSON, RPC, Seed Nodes, Peers, and Snapshot Nodes for a number of networks.

Our operations are fully supported through our bare metal servers and our mix of dedicated hosting centers with a few global service providers as back-ups.

Socials

We have spent a lot of time connecting with everyone. Our delegators, fellow validators, community moderators, project leaders, engineers and so much more. We have increased our following, and tripled our efforts in reaching out to potential partners and just about anyone that really needed our help or whom we could build with.

During this time, we have also organized plenty of giveaways and contests to try and give back to the communities we are involved in. But information is more valuable than any number of tokens, so we also provided tutorials, breakdowns, threads, videos, and articles.

Just to name a few! We have built many threads describing features or particularities of projects we have been involved with from the list of networks described in the first part of this review.

We will continue to deliver on this end and we’re glad to see that our community has become stronger.

Brand identity, technology, and tools

We have revamped our website.. or have we? Actually, these are just the first steps of the image renewal we’re currently using in order to bring our followers and partners the necessary details they need. Once all is said and done, you will be able to check many of the elements we have up within different networks, such as our own public nodes.

In the meantime, we’ll follow that up with an explorer too! That one’s usable as we speak — https://scan.bh.rocks

We have more prepared for 2023, but we would rather build and finish up before we come up with an actual teaser of what’s to come. Let’s just say that we’re ready to innovate.

Closing arguments

Actually, we’re not closing anything. We leave this year open-ended and we encourage everyone to follow us and keep tabs on our activity.

We’ll be exploring more together as we weave our story through Cosmos.
