Today, a group of industry-leading organizations including Alluvial, Aon, Blockdaemon, Chainproof, DV Labs, Eigen Labs, Figment, Galaxy, Nexus Mutual, Staked, and Liquid Collective announced the Node Operator Risk Standard (NORS): a certification that a node operator meets an enterprise-grade standard for Ethereum validator risk management. I'm incredibly proud to have contributed to the development and launch of NORS. Learn more about NORS and why it matters in our post: https://lnkd.in/dYdKxj_p
Announcing the Node Operator Risk Standard (NORS) certification for Ethereum: The gold standard for professional ETH node operators 🌐 Developed by a working group of 13+ industry-leading companies, NORS is the world's first attested certification for staking infrastructure risk management. Why does NORS matter? ➡️ NORS certification makes institutional-grade trust for ETH staking operations achievable. For the first time, institutions can rely on a trusted, 3rd-party-verified standard for resilient ETH staking infrastructure. ➡️ NORS aligns with AICPA audit standards followed by SOC1 and other widely adopted diligence standards, with Big-4 auditors as NORS Qualified Assessors. This unlocks the ability for large-scale institutions to use NORS certification when conducting due diligence on ETH staking operations. ➡️ NORS covers key aspects of node operations, including slashing prevention, validator diversity, and responsible key management. The open risk control matrix sets a new benchmark for professional operational security and risk management, specific to validator infrastructure. Developed by a diverse cross-industry working group, including: Alluvial Aon Blockdaemon Chainproof Coinbase DV Labs Eigen Labs Figment Galaxy Nexus Mutual Staked + others These expert collaborators ensured NORS provides robust risk criteria. In 2023, Liquid Collective started developing open validator performance & risk standards to help define enterprise-grade active sets. Alongside the LsETH Performance SLAs, NORS Certification will be used as an input for future Liquid Collective active set participation.

Staking will be one of the first phases of institutional adoption of defi. Crypto-native asset managers around the world are already offering access to staking rewards, and it’s only a matter of time before large traditional FIs follow with their ETFs. However, these large institutions have incredibly high standards for the types of service providers they engage with, especially when their customers' assets are at risk. To help expedite adoption, and ensure there is a transparent standard to professionalize the staking industry, a group of the world’s most experienced staking players came together to build NORS: the first certification that meets institutional needs for verifying that ETH node operators have enterprise-grade risk management standards in place. Similar to SOC2, NOs can engage leading accounting firms to receive objective certifications that they meet operational and security best practices relating to participating in ETH staking and mitigating slashing losses. Taking a proactive approach to building standards that work with trusted auditors to professionalize our industry is key to 10xing the staking industry. Proud to have been a part of this effort and excited to see some of the first NORS-certified operators!

Spearheading the development of NORS was a natural choice for Alluvial, not only in our efforts to establish a trusted and secure staking standard via Liquid Collective, but to enable broader institutional adoption across the industry. By establishing rigorous, enterprise-grade criteria, NORS empowers stakeholders to evaluate staking technologies through a risk-adjusted lens, ensuring that security and transparency align with institutional expectations. Shoutout to our collaborators Coinbase Aon Blockdaemon Galaxy Chainproof Eigen Labs Figment Nexus Mutual DV Labs and KPMG as a qualified assessor!

The Node Operator Risk Standard is a tremendous step forward for financial institutions and other enterprises participating in staking on Ethereum. The new standard should dramatically simplify vendor due diligence processes for both node operators and their users and help effectively manage the risks of Ethereum staking. Proud to have supported the Alluvial team that led the development of this standard in collaboration with other expert staking organizations.

Alluvial is proud to have facilitated the development of the Node Operator Risk Standard (NORS): the first certification that meets institutional needs for verifying that ETH node operators have enterprise-grade risk management standards in place. Why does NORS matter? As institutional involvement in public blockchains grows, it's critical to have standardized ways to assess the risks specific to ETH validator infrastructure. NORS fills this gap, paving the way for mainstream adoption of proof of stake blockchains. At Alluvial, we believe that the widespread adoption of NORS will foster trust, resilience, and security in ETH staking infrastructure on a global scale, paving the way for mainstream adoption of PoS blockchains.
