Running validators on ARM64 devices has completely changed how we approach home staking. Through the Liquid Staking Module, we've managed to scale operations from under 5 validators to over 100—something that felt impossible before with traditional setups.

What really stands out is how accessible this makes the whole thing. You don't need expensive server infrastructure anymore. Just consumer-grade hardware, and suddenly individual stakers can compete alongside institutional players. The barrier to entry drops significantly.

It's a textbook example of what decentralized infrastructure should look like. When protocols actively reduce friction for solo operators, it naturally strengthens the network. More diverse validators means more resilient consensus, less concentration risk. The ecosystem wins when everyday participants can participate meaningfully without getting priced out of the game.

That's where initiatives enabling this kind of scalability matter—they're not just tech upgrades, they're democracy upgrades for blockchain.
