This week DIN spotlights Validation Cloud, an AI-powered infrastructure company that ranks first worldwide for RPC performance on CompareNodes and secures billions of dollars in staked assets. Validation Cloud delivers three core product lines - Data × AI, Staking, and Node API / RPC - all supported by Mavrik, a proprietary intelligence engine that lets institutions query and automate Web3 data with natural-language workflows.

From Institutional Staking to DIN Participation

Founded to bring enterprise rigor to Web3 infrastructure, Validation Cloud operates SOC 2 Type II-certified clusters and recently raised a $15 million Series A to accelerate global expansion of its AI and staking services. The team joined DIN in 2024 to extend that reliability to a decentralized, performance-routed marketplace. For Validation Cloud, DIN’s cryptoeconomic incentives and transparent monitoring offered the perfect venue to showcase low-latency endpoints while contributing to a trust-minimized ecosystem.

How DIN Improves on Existing Models

Traditional RPC hosts often limit top-tier performance to one or two regions, and many “decentralized” offerings trade visibility for convenience. DIN routes traffic to the fastest, most reliable nodes across all providers and enforces SLAs through staking and slashing. This model aligns with Validation Cloud’s focus on measurable uptime, latency, and institutional-grade observability, creating an environment where performance is the primary driver of rewards.

Networks Live on DIN Today

Validation Cloud currently serves

• BNB Smart Chain mainnet

• BNB Smart Chain testnet

• opBNB mainnet

• opBNB testnet

These chains attract high-growth applications that demand sub-second responses, a metric where Validation Cloud consistently leads in global benchmarks. The company plans to add more of the 50-plus networks it already supports (among them Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Base, and Monad) as DIN expands.

Business Impact and Technical Alignment

DIN introduces a new revenue lane that rewards verifiable performance rather than simple participation. Because Validation Cloud’s monitoring, alerting, and automated scaling were built for institutional clients, absorbing DIN traffic required minimal overhead. The network’s transparent metrics also feed back into internal performance dashboards, helping the team refine latency targets across all regions.

Collaboration Highlights

DIN’s engineering group provided rapid feedback loops, joint incident reviews, and inclusive workshops that accelerated Validation Cloud’s shift from testnet to mainnet across multiple L1 and L2 environments. This hands-on collaboration has been cited by the Validation Cloud team as a key reason for the partnership’s early success.

Vision for Decentralized Infrastructure

Validation Cloud views decentralized RPC as essential for a scalable, permissionless Web3. As traditional finance and large enterprises integrate blockchain solutions, demand for verifiable, low-latency endpoints will only grow. DIN’s marketplace model ensures that no single provider becomes a bottleneck, while Validation Cloud’s AI-driven insights help institutions make sense of an expanding data universe. Looking ahead, the company sees opportunities for DIN to move beyond RPC into additional data and compute services. These are areas where Mavrik’s natural-language analytics could add significant value.

What Comes Next

• Expanded network support across high-value chains

• Shared analytics dashboards that surface real-time performance insights for DIN operators

• AI-powered tooling from Mavrik to help builders query, visualize, and automate on-chain data

Validation Cloud is committed to advancing DIN’s mission of combining enterprise-grade performance with trustless infrastructure, creating a stronger foundation for the next wave of institutional and consumer Web3 applications.
