Obol
Obol builds distributed validator infrastructure for Ethereum, letting a validator be run across multiple independent operators and machines (a Distributed Validator, or DV) instead of a single node, which removes single points of failure in proof-of-stake staking. Its core software is Charon, a Go middleware client that coordinates the operators, plus the DV Launchpad dapp, the Obol Splits smart contracts, and the Obol API (api.obol.tech) with a TypeScript SDK for creating and managing clusters. The Obol API exposes cluster definitions, cluster locks, validator states, exits, deposits, fee recipients, effectiveness, peer scores, Techne credentials, and network staking metrics.
Obol publishes 17 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Address API, Cluster Definition API, Cluster Effectiveness API, and 14 more. Tagged areas include Company, Cryptocurrency, Ethereum, Staking, and Distributed Validators.
Obol’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, authentication, CLI, and 27 more developer resources.
Kin Score
Markets this provider is in provisional
The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
| Market | Position | Depth | Registered MCP server | Declares compatibility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Artifact Hub Cloud-Native Packages | distribution | - | - | - |
Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.
