Zellic Runs Validators

We’re securing networks pre-alpha and post-genesis.
Article heading

Zellic now operates validators and mission-critical infrastructure for our partner chains and foundations. We return 50% of our profits as audit credits, redeemable for security reviews at Zellic and our sister company Zenith.

For most auditors, their commitment to your security ends once they’ve delivered their report. At Zellic, we’re with you for the long haul. This means you get ongoing network security from the best whitehats in the world, and the rewards from your delegation fund future audits for your entire ecosystem.

We’ve already returned over half a million dollars in audit credits to partners like Injective and Sei. We want audits to feel abundant. Stop choosing what to get audited. Just get everything audited.

The Proposition Is Simple

  • You’re building a chain, and we audit your chain.
  • We support you on both security and infrastructure from pre-alpha, to testnet, to mainnet launch, and beyond.
  • You delegate to our validators, and we give back 50% of our profits to you as audit credits.
  • You spend these audit credits with Zellic or Zenith to subsidize the costs of future security reviews for you or teams building in your ecosystem.

TL;DR: Delegate to Zellic and get the best audits for free.

Highlights

Injective

Rewards from our Injective validator have funded audits for core protocol releases and crucial ecosystem projects, such as:

  • Injective’s Peggy Bridge, a trustless, onchain, bidirectional bridge between Injective and Ethereum
  • Injective’s ERC20 Module, powering Injective’s native EVM layer
  • TruFin’s TruStake, institutional-grade liquid staking bringing traditional finance into Injective ($7M+ TVL, top-three protocol on the chain)

“Zellic has been an outstanding validator and trusted partner for Injective, consistently ensuring the security and resilience of the ecosystem. Their top-notch security audits and deep technical expertise set a high standard, making them one of the most important and reliable validators in the Injective network.”

— Achilleas Kalantzis, Head of Strategy, Injective Foundation

Sei

Zellic’s Sei validator has funded security reviews across Sei’s entire DeFi stack, including several of the chain’s largest protocols:

  • Takara Lend, currently Sei’s #1 protocol by TVL ($84M+), providing core lending and borrowing infrastructure
  • Sailor Finance, top three on Sei by TVL ($15M+), the native DEX and liquidity hub powering Sei’s token economy
  • Citrex, perpetuals and spot trading with CEX-like speed ($500M+ monthly volume), fully on chain
  • Yei Finance and Silo Finance, early ecosystem protocols we secured at the peaks of their activity and TVL

“Zellic has been an excellent validator and contributor to the Sei ecosystem. They bring deep operational rigor to the validator set, a core demand for network security, and their validator has funded audits for some of the largest protocols on the Sei Network.”

— Jay Jog, Co-Founder, Sei Labs

Who Should Reach Out

We’re looking for long-term partners who want S-tier security and infrastructure operators from day one:

  • Teams building novel chains at any stage of development
  • LST operators who want staking rewards to fund audits
  • VCs, investors, and large token holders who want to offer security support to their portfolio companies

Same deal for everyone: 50% of profits back as audit credits. Reach out, and let’s talk.

The Future of the Initiative

We think long-term, and we work with long-term people. The relationships most rewarding to us start long before launch and continue well past mainnet, through design reviews, full protocol audits, and now infrastructure that helps fund security reviews for your ecosystem. You keep building, and we’ll be with you every step of the way doing what we do best: finding all the bugs, saving all the money.
