BUILD SOMETHING UNORDINARY

Ariel Chang

Babylon Head of Community

“node101 plays a key role in Turkey's developer and crypto ecosystem. Through ETHIstanbul and other local initiatives, they help create spaces where builders can connect, learn and grow. I joined ETHIstanbul as a judge and saw firsthand how much care the node101 team puts into every part of an event. They focus on clarity, structure and making people feel genuinely supported. Their commitment to education and community building is consistent and dependable, and it has made a real difference for Babylon in Turkey.”

Will Cove

Mina Foundation, VP, Ecosystem (formerly)

“Yunus and the node101 team tackled one of the hardest real-world problems in digital governance: censorship-resistant anonymous voting. Their approach of combining Mina, various data availability protocols, and client-side zk proofs broke away from the typical on-chain execution playbook that's common across smart contract platforms, instead relying on on-demand, distributed computation. They were the first team in the Mina ecosystem to think about decentralized application architecture in a zk-native way, and their design continues to serve as a North Star for other builders across the ecosystem.”

Maghnus Mareneck

Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Cosmos Labs

“I worked with the Validatier ties to help them structure their product. Validatier provides the ATOM community with more insight into flows of capital, and gives another dimension for delegators to make their decisions on who to delegate to. It was excellent working with the node101 team; they are motivated to help ATOM, and talented engineers.”

Fisher Yu

CTO of Babylon Labs

“node101 is a very professional validator and also goes above and beyond. Their team not only maintains excellent validator performance with very high uptime and fast response, but also builds tools for the Babylon ecosystem, such as validator indexer and full stack solutions that directly improve developer and protocol experience. They operate like a true product team, not just a validator.”

Viet Nguyen

Head of DevRel at Celestia Labs

“Working with node101 has shown us that a validator can be far more than an infrastructure provider. Their contributions to the Celestia ecosystem, from supporting developer incubation to driving community events, reflect a genuine commitment to the network's long-term growth. Their involvement during Mamathon and their continued collaboration have made them a truly valuable partner.”
