About this event

Join Startup Grind Tel Aviv for an insightful evening with Alon Muroch, the visionary founder behind ssv.network, a Tel Aviv-based company revolutionizing Ethereum staking and blockchain infrastructure.

As the backbone of Web3 continues to evolve, ensuring the security and decentralization of core networks like Ethereum is paramount. Alon, a blockchain developer since the early days (2013) and a firm believer in the Ethereum ethos, recognized the critical need for more robust staking solutions. This led him to pioneer work in Distributed Validator Technology (DVT) and found ssv.network.

ssv.network tackles the single points of failure inherent in traditional staking by enabling the distributed operation of Ethereum validators. Its innovative protocol splits validator keys across multiple non-trusting nodes, significantly enhancing security, fault tolerance, and decentralization. With over $5.5 Billion in Total Value Locked (TVL) secured via its technology and backing from major investors like Coinbase, ssv.network is already making a massive impact.

In this fireside chat, we'll dive deep with Alon into:

  • His journey as a founder in the dynamic Web3 space.

  • The groundbreaking Distributed Validator Technology (DVT/SSV) powering ssv.network.

  • The challenges and triumphs of building critical blockchain infrastructure from Tel Aviv.

  • The future vision for ssv.network, including SSV 2.0 and the exciting potential of "Based Applications" (bApps) to extend Ethereum's security.

  • Insights into the evolving landscape of staking, decentralization, and the future of Ethereum.

Whether you're a founder, developer, investor, or simply curious about the future of blockchain and Web3, this is a fantastic opportunity to learn from one of the key innovators shaping the underlying technology.

As always, expect great networking opportunities with fellow entrepreneurs, technologists, and leaders from the Tel Aviv startup ecosystem. See you there!
