## Overview

**Staatenlos Node** is an active [Radix](/contents/tech/releases/radix-mainnet-babylon) mainnet [validator](/contents/tech/core-concepts/radix-governance) operated by the team behind [Staatenlos](https://staatenlos.ch), a German-language community focused on financial privacy and location independence. The node was set up by Christoph Heuermann together with Lukas — the two co-founders of the Radix DEX [Ociswap](/ecosystem/ociswap) — to help decentralise the network and introduce the Staatenlos community to Radix.

As of July 2026 the validator (`validator_rdx1svpqaf…`) is [registered and accepting delegated stake](https://node.staatenlos.ch/), carrying roughly **94.9M XRD** of delegated stake at a **2.5% validator fee** with **100% uptime** over the trailing month (on-chain figures via the [Radix Dashboard](https://dashboard.radixdlt.com/network-staking)).

## Operations & reliability

The Staatenlos Node team runs monitoring and backup systems to keep the validator highly available through hardware or network failures. Staatenlos is also part of a mutual-support alliance with fellow node runner [Radical Staking](/ecosystem/radical-staking), in which the two operators back up each other's node operations in an emergency.

## Staking

XRD holders can delegate to Staatenlos Node directly from the [Radix Wallet](https://wallet.radixdlt.com): open the staking view, search for "Staatenlos Node", and stake any amount of XRD. Delegated stake earns network emissions minus the validator fee, and can be unstaked subject to the network's unbonding period. Staking never transfers custody — delegated XRD remains in the holder's account as stake units.
