Agnostic Relay‍

Fundamental Questions and Building Motivation

In a proof of stake system, a validator is a node responsible for storing data, processing transactions, and adding new blocks to the blockchain. The neutrality of a protocol is permanently undermined if different rules apply for which transaction will be validated. For such a system to be credibly neutral, ensuring unfiltered validation of transactions, all content must be created and treated equally by validators.

A world of open competition is only possible if the networks we use to transact are credibly neutral and resistant to censorship.

Today, the Gnosis community is proud to release the Agnostic Relay, a credibly neutral tool for the Ethereum ecosystem through which any and all transactions may be validated unfiltered on the network.
