This difficult decision comes as a direct result of the Web3 Foundation's (W3F) recent decision to stop the decentralized nodes program. This program was vital to our operational model and its dissolution has made continuing our validator services unsustainable.
Our proprietary tools, including the Cyclops validator dashboard, will no longer be hosted or maintained by our team. However, in the spirit of open-source development, the source code will remain available to the community under the Apache 2.0 license.
We thank our nominators and the community for their support throughout our journey in the Polkadot ecosystem.
