Gold Finance reports that Google Cloud has joined Wormhole's Guardian Network, according to an official announcement from the Wormhole Foundation, the development team behind Wormhole.

The Guardian Network is a decentralized group of reputable validator nodes, including RockawayX, P2P, Figment, Everstake, and others. These nodes are crucial for transaction verification. The network is the backbone of Wormhole's ecosystem security and validation technology.

As a Guardian node, Google Cloud's infrastructure strengthens the decentralized network, ensuring uptime and providing validation redundancy coverage for the entire Guardian set by immediately backfilling any Guardians experiencing downtime.
