Most "build" in crypto by launching tokens. We build by seizing the infra Blockchain has been a boys' club too long. Arteria Nodes is here to decentralize the power AND the gender ratio on NEAR. Thanks @meta_pool -we’re validating the future of women in Web3. #NodeStudio2

2/ THE PAST Running a NEAR validator was the perfect fit for my plans with thecoding and my content creation on X: + near is a fantastic blockchain and tech stack, worth supporting as a validator node + near has many interesting things happening, worth writing about + writing high-quality, human-crafted content requires a lot of time, and time is money + validator rewards via pool fees can help funding these activities (not much, but honest work) + running a node is a great learning opportunity and gives me a direct endpoint to the NEAR network, all helping with specialized content creation + likewise, it adds skin-in-the-game and connects everything together For that, I chose @meta_pool Node Studio, providing setup support, good node/validator UI, ongoing support for node maintanance, and an initial 40,000 NEAR (Ⓝ) stake delegation in its Cohort #2

「thecoding」→ validator update: status, milestones and roadmap Let's take a look at thecoding.pool.near validator. What we have achieved so far and what the next steps are, attached to some delegation milestones *thecoding is a $NEAR blockchain validator since Oct 2025 🧵↓

I gave a presentation today about onchain governance and DAOs to undergraduate computer science at GA Tech. A link to my slide deck is in the comments. 👇

@alvariance_ @meta_pool True, but it all comes down to what we believe is the true intent of MP team. In our opinion (and past experience in another DAO), this honesty and realism by the team is the right move. Wiliness to make it work is the 2nd reason.

@ArteriaNodes @meta_pool The main Concern here is how this Proposal would affecting other LST providers revenues . . . 35% is basically a path toward centralization, in a sense.

1/The @meta_pool ecosystem is at a crossroads. With protocol revenue down 85%, MPIP-26 introduces a "structural reset." As a small validator on Node Studio, we’re sharing our front-line perspective on what this means for the network👇

4/MPIP-26 is a move toward accountability, from loose grants to a rigorous 20% equity incubator. We’re backing the 12-month review period to keep things transparent. Read our full breakdown and get ready to vote!

3/Concerns about the 20% fee cap? For Node Studio operators like us, agreements stay fixed at 7%. The higher ceiling for others actually helps smaller nodes stay viable when market conditions are tight. It’s about keeping the validator business inclusive👇

4/The Grants Program is also evolving into a high-stakes Incubator. Projects must meet strict milestones and share 20% of their tokens with the Treasury. It’s a "skin in the game" model designed to build a resilient, diversified future for the DAO. 👉metapool.app/mpip?id=26

3/For us validators, the fee cap is rising to 20%. While high, it gives smaller nodes, like those in @meta_pool Node Studio, a sustainable margin. With 50% of stake still going to 220+ external nodes, the goal is balancing protocol health with ecosystem decentralization👇

1/@meta_pool is proposing a major structural reset via MPIP-26. After an 85% drop in USD revenue due to market shifts and @NEARProtocol inflation halving, the protocol is moving from "hibernation" to active restructuring to ensure long-term survival. 👇

4/Why be a @NEARProtocol operator? 1️⃣ Security: We guard the Sharding process 2️⃣ Resilience: Geodiversity prevents failure points 3️⃣ Growth: Moving from storing data to powering intelligence We are building the world’s first user-owned AI infrastructure. Let’s keep it 99.9%+

3/With @meta_pool Node Studio, uptime isn’t a suggestion - it’s a requirement. Reliability is the bridge to enterprise-grade AI. If a node drops, an agent loses its ability to act. Geo-diversification ensures no regional outage can take down the burgeoning AI economy.👇

1/As a @NEARProtocol node operator, we’ve seen the network evolve, but the launch of @IronClawAI changes the game for “Always-On” AI. Security is just the baseline. For decentralized AI to thrive, we need more than code, we need resilient infrastructure. 👇

Increasing validator stakes ensures infra security. Here's the best practices as a node operator 👇x.com/i/spaces/1DGLd…

As a Cohort 2 validator, we're excited to see Node Studio Cohort 3 onboard 60 new nodes. More validators = a more resilient @NEARProtocol By decentralizing risk and reducing power concentration, we’re building a truly robust infrastructure. Set a reminder for this: @meta_pool
