Hello everyone!
My name is Tony with Cosmic Global Networks, LLC (https://cosmic.global). We are a custom built terabit-scale global network that peers directly with T1 providers.
Our primary business is Network Security/DDoS Mitigation, but we are exploring new opportunities in blockchain Proof-of-Stake communities.
We want to host as many public validators as possible with minimal (0-1%) fees to contribute to wider adoption, security, and trust of PoS blockchains.
We own all of our hardware and currently collocate in 3 PoPs where we peer directly with T1 ISP providers on dedicated 100gbit lines. Our team has years of experience in system administration and netops in general, and we are all huge fans of blockchain.
Our Kusama (and soon Polkadot) nodes run on powerful 32-core dedicated Intel servers we built ourselves, racked in fully redundant pro-privacy datacenters, and fully leverage the telemetry, monitoring, and networking of Cosmic Global Networks.
We have submitted an application for the Kusama "Thousands Validators" program, and hope to leverage acceptance to host an official low-fee Polkadot node in the near future.
