New Financing Tools
For Big Problems

Launchnodes has always believed that staking returns can be used as a long-term financing tool to fund positive outcomes related to climate change, inequality and new infrastructure.

Climate

Inequality

Infrastructure

The central idea is that instead of making a single donation or grant, an individual Impact Staker or organisation commits capital in the form of ETH. That ETH is staked for a period of time, and some or all returns from staking are donated to address a climate, inequality or infrastructure problem for a 1-5 year period. 

After that, the original capital is returned to the individual or organisation, allowing them to fund something else, or take back their capital.

The organisation using the funding to drive a positive impact commits to designing its work to provide automated and open source data that assumes that not every approach will work, but that the data generated supports improvement and change.

The first practical use case for impact staking has started. We have built prototype projects working with established non-profit and multilateral organisations. Contact us If you would like to join our working group that looks at using staking as a long-term financing tool for social impact.

Staking ETH

Staking allows the economic wealth generated by the growth of the Ethereum network, in terms of its adoption and the applications built on top of it, to be shared in a different way to the Internet and Web 2.0. Both in terms of:

  • The data being a source of economic wealth that can be monetised by everyone, not simply big tech companies who run centralised databases
  • Securing the network by running validator nodes

Validator Node End to End Set up and Support

Launchnodes’ Concierge Service provides end-to-end set up for an Ethereum validator node. This is ideal if you want to Solo Stake and have at least 32 Ethereum or multiples of 32 Ethereum in a Metamask wallet, or a wallet compatible with depositing ETH through the ETH launchpad.

The validator nodes can connect to a Launchnodes Beacon node or your own Beacon nodes. You can use this service to build your own customised staking architecture as a solo Ethereum stakers. On AWS or your own infrastructure.

  • A fully managed set up for Ethereum Nodes in your own infrastructure
  • Non-technical users can run an Ethereum node as Solo Stakers
  • Scope for engineers and more technical users to review and optimise Validator node set up

RPC Nodes

When performing mission critical or financially significant activity on the Ethereum blockchain, having your own RPC nodes ensures you can trust the data. Third party APIs are powerful tools making development at scale easy, but Blockchain-building requires data you can trust, where you own the source, and this is what RPC nodes provide.

Teku Beacon Node with Geth

A pre-synced Beacon node (using the Teku or Prysmatic client), with the Geth Client for Ethereum that allows you to connect to the beacon chain quickly and connect to Validator nodes. Beacon nodes can take 4-5 days to synchronise. Geth nodes can take 1 or 2 days.

  • Launchnodes Pre-synced Ethereum Beacon node with Geth is synchronised within 3-5 hours, saving 5+ days of synchronisation time
  • Solo Stake Ethereum
  • Run RPC nodes faster and more resiliently
  • Build effective backup infrastructure for staking at scale

Pre-synced Geth Node

Launchnodes provides a pre-synced Geth Node on AWS for staking ETH, native RPC nodes and other Layer 2 solutions. For the purposes of ETH staking Geth is an execution layer client.

A pre-synced Geth node is useful for any business or person staking ETH and can be used by all consensus layer clients. These consensus layer clients can run on public cloud or private data centre infrastructure. Making it easier and cheaper to stake ETH

All ETH Layer 2 solutions also require an Ethereum Geth node. This easy to run Geth node is pre-synced and can be deployed on public cloud or bare metal. By making Geth easy Launchnodes supports building in the Layer 2 eco-system.

  • A pre-synchronised Geth node to make staking ETH easier, faster and cheaper.
  • Suitable for those staking ETH using all consensus layer clients
  • Makes ETH staking easier on cloud or private data centre infrastructure

Teku Validator Node

Launchnodes provides an Always ON Teku Validator Node for Ethereum staking on mainnet or testnets

  • Use the power of public cloud or bare metal to build your Solo Staking infrastructure
  • Always running the latest version of the Prysmatic or Teku Validator client software for Solo Staking
  • Your Validator node is easy to set up and private. It is entirely managed in your own infrastructure and connected to a Launchnodes Beacon node with a Geth execution layer client as default.
  • Or connect to your own Prysmatic or Teku Beacon node with your own execution layer client on public cloud or bare metal.

Nodes for other PoS blockchains

We provide customers with white labelled nodes that can run on public cloud, our infrastructure or data centre infrastructure owned by you. Create your own independent staking infrastructure with your own nodes in your own AWS, GCP or Azure account, or running on your own infrastructure.

Launchnodes offers all the staking building blocks to allow any level of customisation for ETH staking and for alternative blockchains.

Prysmatic Validator Node

Run Validator nodes on your own infrastructure public cloud or bare metal and stake 32ETH per node.

Launchnodes allows you to choose between Prysmatic or Teku software to be a Solo Staker and run Validator nodes and stake ETH. The Ethereum nodes run on infrastructure you own, while mnemonics, passwords, or public or private keys are never shared with Launchnodes.

Pre-synced Prysmatic Beacon Node with Geth

Launchnodes provides a pre-configured Geth client (execution layer) running alongside a Teku client (consensus layer). This allows you to run Beacon nodes that can connect to validator nodes to start earning staking rewards or access blockchain data directly.

Participate and stake Ethereum as a Solo Staker. Use Launchnodes container based product to run Beacon nodes that have a connected Geth node to connect to the beacon chain. The Beacon Chain coordinates the network, and manages Proof of Stake for Ethereum.
