In a significant development for the blockchain landscape, PairPoint by Vodafone has officially announced its entry as a validator for the SKALE Network on September 23rd, 2025, in San Francisco, CA. This move underscores the increasing confidence of traditional enterprises in blockchain technology, and the material points to an encouraging trend: their commitment to the evolving ecosystem.
PairPoint's Strategic Transition
PairPoint's transition from a genesis validator for FAIR to a validator for SKALE marks a strategic expansion of its role in the blockchain space. This dual role is designed to bridge the gap between consumer-scale applications and institutional-grade infrastructure, thereby enhancing the overall security and decentralization of the SKALE Network.
Enhancing the SKALE Network
The SKALE Network is known for its gas-free blockchain capabilities, which allow for seamless transactions and scalability. With this partnership, PairPoint aims to explore synergies that will not only bolster the SKALE ecosystem but also drive growth in the emerging Economy of Things, positioning itself at the forefront of innovation in the blockchain sector.
