what's Cointelegraph Decentralization Guardians?

Cointelegraph Decentralization Guardians (CTDG) is an initiative by Cointelegraph to bolster blockchain decentralization. It runs high-performance validators on various proof-of-stake networks such as MultiversX, Solana, Polkadot, Cosmos, Injective, Chiliz, and others. Users delegate native tokens to CTDG validators via wallet integrations, securing networks through consensus mechanisms like NPoS or BPoS while earning rewards paid in chain-native assets. The platform provides transparent details on commissions, unbonding periods, encryption standards (e.g., secp256k1, sr25519), and governance participation. CTDG extends beyond validation with a Developer Hub for proposing and refining blockchain upgrades, including encrypted mempools and fee delegation standards across ecosystems like Ethereum, Solana, and Canton. Integrated CTDG Research delivers insights via reports and articles on Web3 trends, leveraging Cointelegraph's expertise to foster innovation and transparency in decentralized infrastructure.

CTDG is an official MultiversX staking partner, allowing users to delegate for rewards.
