Obol Collective is a decentralized operator ecosystem focused on enhancing the security, resilience, and decentralization of Layer 1 blockchains and infrastructure networks. By providing modular tools and technologies, such as the Charon middleware client and the Techne Credential, Obol enables node operators to run performant, slashing-resistant nodes. The ecosystem fosters collaboration among staking protocols, node operators, and home stakers, aiming to scale decentralized networks effectively. Participants can earn OBOL tokens through programmatic incentives and retroactive funding, contributing to the growth and sustainability of the decentralized infrastructure.
