Valar is bringing blockchain’s core promise of decentralization into reality.

Valar is a **decentralized platform** connecting blockchain stakeholders to node runners, enabling **direct staking** of their assets. By increasing the number of nodes and the amount of online stake, Valar **protects on-chain assets** and empowers solutions leveraging blockchain tech.

One month after Valar's launch on its first supported blockchain - Algorand, it has 200 users that are contributing more than $10M to the economic security of Algorand. Valar is expanding to other blockchains.

Valar started when the team wanted to build applications that rely on high network decentralization to minimize risks but noticed that majority of blockchains have not yet reached their full decentralization potential. Hence, Valar presents the cornerstone for the team's next products.
