NOTE: Validators that have not yet put up a profile are hidden. Get the full list of validators here.
As a validator, it's not enough to maintain rock-solid, reliable infrastructure. You also need to market yourself effectively and court delegations from prospecting delegators. The Validator Profiles hosted on this Github repository give you a platform to give potential delegators and clients a brief introduction on your team, philosophy, architecture and infrastructure, and to present your ecosystem contributions. Badges may be applied by the maintainers of this repo only for claims that can be validated.

Registered validators (validators who have submitted a profile) can opt in to receiving support from Terra by putting their contact information in a profile.json file. Terra provides various validator support such as automatic notifications when your validator is missing blocks or votes.
{
"contact": { // contact info for delegators / outreach
"email": "validator@example.com",
"telegram": "@validator"
},
"notifications": { // notification settings
"email": "technicalemail@example.com" // email to receive notifications
}
}A complete profile including a Terravaloper and a contact email in the profile.json file must be submitted in order to receive a checkmark in Terra Station. New profiles are manually reviewed by the repo owner and a second reviewer approves the addition to the Station Assets Repo. This is the final step in completing a profile.
