Key Points
We're ecstatic to announce the arrival of 16 brand new validators to Ronin's Saigon Testnet! Our Saigon delegators can now delegate their RON to these validators and partake in a dress-rehearsal for the upcoming Ronin DPOS migration.
This rehearsal is crucial for collecting vital feedback for the Validator Portal and Ronin Documentation.
On Ronin, there are Standard Validators and Governing Validators. Standard Validators participate in block production and ensure that the bridge is always operational. Governing Validators act as Standard Validators with the additional responsibility of making decisions that shape the future of the network. On Saigon Testnet, we’re pleased to have QU3ST, YGG, DappRadar, Stable Node, BLRD, and Alphalab Capital as Governing Validators.
Ronin’s groundbreaking migration to DPoS is approaching fast, and we’re proud to see our community rally around this historic moment. Thank you to our sixteen new Saigon Testnet validators BigYak Axie Club, Paolo Diomede and Graphtronauts, The Lunacian Wizard, Web3addicted, SuraGaming, Ramanode, BLRD, monica, FirstStudio, Razor, DBS DAO, AlphaLab Capital, Airdrop Sultan ID, Battle Bears, My Cointainer, and the Mystic Ronin Node Group for embarking on this journey with us.
Here are a few words from some of the trailblazing new Testnet validators battle-testing Ronin before the big day.
As we take our place as a validator on the Ronin network, our hearts swell with pride. We are a community of Axie IP fanatics, bound by our passion for web3 ownership and a commitment to protect not just our own Axie family, but all future communities on the network. As a testnet validator, we are eager to learn and test shaping the future of the Ronin network and to leave a lasting legacy. This opportunity to serve and make a difference is both humbling and deeply meaningful to us. We are honored to have been selected and be a part of this trial and amazing community. The BYAC can't wait to see what we can achieve together.

We are a team of Web and 3D designers. We have worked with many NFT projects on ETH and Solana, and have designed Web3 sites for them. As new Testnet validators, we are very happy to be part of Ronin. Our main goal is to provide great feedback and support the ecosystem to the best of our abilities. In the past, we have participated as node owners and validators in great projects including: Aptos, Sui, Stride, Nibiru, Ironfish, Aleo, Forta, and more. In our opinion, Ronin Network is a great experience for beginner to advanced crypto users and we are willing to do all we can to support the network.
We believe web3 is the next phase of digital evolution, disrupting the web2 status quo in a manner not seen within the last 20-years. Today, millions of Internet gamers worldwide are primed to embrace a multitude of new web3 games and its new Play-to-Earn model. Ronin Network and Sky Mavis will provide the fundamental infrastructure layer crucial to this new digital revolution, and we are here to support their vision.
As part of the Sky Mavis family for almost 2 years we are proud to take a very important role within the ecosystem, from granting scholarships to content creation, professional esports and being community enhancers. Becoming a Ronin validator is a step forward in the Sky Mavis - Sura Gaming trusting relationship and a clear message stating that Ronin validation transactions are truly decentralized. For Sura Gaming can be challenging but at the same time we believe it is important to contribute from our side to validation decentralization. Being the first fully independent gaming guild and the only one adressing South American & Hispanic speaking people is an honor.
Additionally, to us being part of a cutting-edge technology that has the potential to transform industries and improve people's lives can be a motivating factor.
The Lunacian Wizard, member and supporter of the German speaking AxieDACH community, is convinced of the possibilities of blockchain and the enormous advantage of decentralization. We strive to promote web3 technologies, developers, communities in Europe and ensure decentralization of networks. We are proud to run the Saigon Validator on behalf of the AxieDACH community and to support the further development of the Ronin network.
We make up a group of nearly 30 long-time Axie Infinity community members and Mystic Axie holders. We are strong believers in Axie Infinity's mission and understand that the Ronin chain is the backbone of this growing digital nation.
We are proud and honored to help serve our community by maintaining a Ronin network node. We are community-first and look forward to playing an important role in the security and growth of the Ronin network and Axie Infinity ecosystem over the months and years to come.
