First Third-Party Node Operators Join BAM
Enabling third parties outside of Jito to operate BAM Nodes and decentralize block building has been a core goal for BAM since its conception. Today, we’re taking a major step toward achieving it: Bitwise, Triton One, and SOL Strategies have officially been onboarded as the first cohort of BAM Node Operators and will soon go live on BAM testnet.
About the Partners
Until now, every BAM Node on testnet and mainnet has been run by Jito. That changes with this first cohort of operators, which includes some of the most trusted names on Solana, with deep expertise across validator operations, blockchain infrastructure and asset management.
Triton One, one of the most reputable RPC and infrastructure providers, and one of the first validators on the network.
Bitwise, one of the most respected crypto asset management firms, with over $14B in assets under management across 70+ investment products, including ETFs and private funds.
SOL Strategies, a publicly traded company focused on Solana infrastructure and privacy technologies, and one of the early validators on the network.
Their combined experience will enable Jito to set the bar for third-party BAM Node operation and ensure it meets the standards for broader operator participation.
