Here users can customize and view all the details about their validators and who is operating them. Allows distributors to seamlessly select and manage their executive team with the click of a button.
By providing this functionality, we are able to revolutionize the betting industry, allowing validators to customize their operator set up through the network's web app and smart contracts. bright.
