The Evolution of sqrDAO: Why We Are Building sqrNODE
From Proof of Build to Network Consensus
GM Builders,
At sqrDAO, our mission has always been anchored in “Proof of Build.” We believe that the strongest ecosystems aren’t just bought; they are engineered. As we move into 2026, the landscape of decentralized finance demands more than just participation—it demands conviction through infrastructure.
Today, we are officially introducing sqrNODE: a strategic expansion of the sqrDAO ecosystem designed to secure the networks we believe in while building a sustainable treasury for our future.
Beyond Hardware: Turning Conviction into Consensus
sqrNODE isn’t just a collection of servers. It is the physical manifestation of our belief in decentralized networks. By operating high-performance nodes, we are moving from being observers of the web3 revolution to being the very foundation it rests upon.
Here is how we are securing the frontier:
1. Strategic Infrastructure with Meta Pool
Sustainability requires long-term commitment. We are now entering our third month in the NSP #2 (Node Studio 2) with Meta Pool. This partnership allows us to position sqrDAO at the vanguard of Liquid Staking, ensuring our treasury grows in tandem with the protocols we support.
2. Securing the Pharos Network
We are honored to join the 4th batch of validators for the Pharos Network. Standing alongside industry leaders like Nansen, Zellic, Stakely, Kudasai, and Brightly Stake, sqrNODE is currently active on the Private Mainnet. We are hard at work paving the digital road toward the Public Mainnet launch in the coming months.
3. Leading Ethereum’s Security in Vietnam
Our role as the Lido Finance Lead Representative in Vietnam remains a cornerstone of our identity. Over the past year, we’ve taken the technical complexities of the Lido CSM program and brought them to the streets of Hanoi and HCMC.
Through hands-on technical workshops, we are bridging the gap between local talent and global Ethereum security. IRL education meets on-chain security.
Looking Ahead: The Rooms Worth Being In
2026 will be defined by the quality of the signals we follow. At sqrDAO, we are curated by intent. We are building the “rooms worth being in”—spaces where high-level builders and long-term thinkers collaborate to solve the hardest problems in Web3.
The engine is running. The nodes are live. The conviction is verifiable.

Stay BUIDL-ing,
