On September 13th, Chronicle, an Ethereum blockchain oracle project, added four new validators to its decentralized network: Euler, Mantle, Nethermind, and ETHGlobal. The team stated: "In the Chronicle ecosystem, validators are trusted participants, established protocols, or protocols with proven operational security, that provide data to the oracle. Chronicle's expanded validator set enhances security and resilience, making it more difficult for technical failures or hacks to affect consensus and bring the network down."
