Hey Node-Operators,
Please post your validator website in this thread. You are also free to introduce yourself.
Note that this topic does not mean endorsement by the Harmony Team. Each user is encouraged to perform careful due diligence on every validator candidate.
@hashparty @winahyos @lij have moved the topic here.
@OgreAbroad @C10NU7 @anttu @Lucian @JB273 feel free to introduce your validator here 
Here is a list of 43 validators who are eligible for next epoch with superb uptime by the time of posting.
Hi,
I’m Samuel and I run RoboValidator. You can read more about the validator here http://robovalidator.com/. After I overslept and lost out on bidding for three of four slots during the first epoch for open staking, I became determined to never lose out on a slot again and resolved myself to write a program that would perform the bidding for me 24/7 and that’s where the concept and name came to be.
A little bit about myself: I am a software engineer working in Silicon Valley likely very close to Harmony HQ. I first learned about Harmony from the Binance IEO and became convinced this project was worth investing in after seeing the impressive talent on the team and signed up to run two foundational nodes thereafter. I am running the validator node mainly for fun and am excited to be a part of the Harmony community. I am also looking forward to write some DApps running on Harmony in the future.
Thx @Maggie,
Our validator is just getting stable and starting to hit 100% block signing. We have 3 nodes located in EU/US/ASIA so I expect uptime to be very solid going forward. I am focusing on building an Elixir library for Harmony before building a site, so the best place to keep up is on github: https://github.com/hashparty1 and twitter: https://twitter.com/0xhashparty
Thanks and Happy Staking!!
BigB - SmartStake.io
SmartStake is a transparent, professional, and feature rich staking service provider. BigB with 20+ years of IT experience is the operator of the service. Besides staking service and active participation in the community, Smart Stake builds easy to understand and user centric tools for all network participants. We introduce new performance metrics to simplify assessment of a validator’s node health, performance, and rate of returns. We have already created a basic dashboard for Harmony at harmony.smartstake.io. We will add many more features to the dashboard in near future.
Our validator has been running with 100% uptime since its election. We use an active-active redundancy with two different cloud hosting providers to ensure high availability. Our node health is visible in near-realtime on the dashboard for everyone to see.
Thank you @Maggie for the invite!
We are P-OPS! Harmony’s #1 Community run validator.
Our Team comprises of 8 globally located Blockchain enthusiasts who have been helping out Harmony Community for over a year to setup their nodes (Foundation, Pangaea, OpenStaking …), and producing explainers and documentation for the benefit of all.
We have setup our Validator using high-end infrastructure with 24x7 monitoring and backups and secured it to the highest standards.
Based on our deep know-how of the Harmony Protocol we have developed algorithms to automatically adjust our validator’s bids close to the effective median, to consistently get elected across epochs and thereby ensuring the highest rewards for our delegators.
: We have been recognized for our community contributions by the official harmony team.
P-OPS are the special forces of Harmony. They execute at an absurd efficiency and speed and are my first call to get the job done - Li Jiang COO, Harmony
Pangaea Ops Captains are the most dedicated, technical and diligent. They are the core of Harmony’s network and community." Stephen Tse CEO, Harmony
Best blockchain tech community I’ve seen! Without P-OPS, Harmony won’t be making such progress so fast.- ** Rongjian Lan** CTO, Harmony

Founded in early 2019, Chainode Tech is a young, extremely motivated and experienced team based in Zug, Switzerland, that is focused on providing staking and validator services on cutting edge Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) protocols. We joined the Harmony Protocol project since the early days first as an investor, and then as Foundational Nodes, P-OPS team member and contributor to its ecosystem.
Since the Open Staking started, we have constantly delivered top performance. A few infos about our set-up can be found below:
Redundant validator nodes for high uptime
HSM based authentication for better security
Low fee (4,9 %)
Active key management for higher rewards, constantly
All our nodes are very powerful and are chunking through blocks thus providing guaranteed uptime > 99,9% since the beginning of the epoch
We love transparency and we want to provide this to our delegators. This is why, for a better communication and to be closer to our team we also set-up a telegram channel. Please feel free to join, we are happy to answer your questions and exchange ideas: @ChainodeTech (Telegram)
The long run matters the most and we are making sure to be here for a long time. Reason why, we do not only act as a top validator in the Harmony Ecosystem, but as a contributor as well. A few of our main contributions can be found in the visual below. 
If you like our team, you can delegate to our validator here

Hi everyone,
I run the validator for HarmonyNews. I’m a foundational node runner and a long-time Harmony community member (almost a year now!).
What’s HarmonyNews.one?
HarmonyNews.one is a community project which has been around since August, 2019. I always try to keep the community up-to-date on Twitter and elsewhere on Harmony. It’s proven to be a great success, but it’s really only just begun.
So, if you haven’t followed @HarmonyNewsOne on Twitter already, you should.
I previously ran two foundational nodes and now I’m happy to say I’m running a validator on Open Staking.
Learning the Ropes
Initially, there were some hiccups—shard 0 was too demanding and my uptime was ruined. However, since then, I’ve moved to shard 1 and things have been much better. As of now, I have 98% uptime this epoch as per the amazing dashboard created by Smartstake.io. And it’s getting better!
When I started running Foundational Nodes, I had never spun up a node before. Yet, I learned and excelled. It was fun—and I have no doubt running a validator for the community will be just as rewarding. So, I won’t rest until I tweak everything just right to ensure 100% of blocks are signed moving forward.
The HarmonyNews Node
Why you should delegate with us:
Low fee of just 3.5% (all the top validators usually charge 5%). Validator will be safe (2FA) and always monitored for uptime. Been a Harmony supporter and running foundational nodes since summer 2019. I’ve always been there and worked hard for the community 
Thanks for reading!
FreshONES is part of the Fresh family of validators (FreshATOMS, FreshLUNA, FreshTEZOS). We have been running masternodes since 2016 and been validating since June 2018. Our team has more than 30 years experience in infrastructure and DevOps.

You can read more about our infrastructure on our site.
We actively manage the number of keys we sign with to optimize the yield. Currently our fee is 2.5% for a limited time. Pls get in touch with use via our telegram channel to coordinate delegating to us so that we can achieve the optimal slot position.
None of this stuff makes sense to you? No problem. Came over to our telegram chat (link above) and we will be happy to answer all your questions
