Over 1,900 blockproducing nodes in the Solana ecosystem, new report reveals

Solana released its first “Validator Health Report” post-wallet hack, which reveals 3,400 validators across six different continents. Solana released its first-ever, “Validator Health Report” which revealed information on its network operators. According to the report the network has over 1,900 block-producing nodes with nearly 1,688 (88.14%) of those run by independent entities. Solana says the health and strength of its validators is critical to the long-term health of the ecosystem. Previously, the network has faced backlash for both a lack of decentralization and expensive validator hardware. Moreover, the report shows how activity on the network has risen in the last year.
