Why Bhutan Is Running a Validator?
A validator is one of the core parts of a proof-of-stake blockchain. Validators check transactions, help keep the network secure, and take part in key network decisions.
By running a Sei validator, Bhutan becomes an active network participant. It is not outsourcing this role to private firms outside the country.
