[PRESS RELEASE – Please Read Disclaimer]

Stavanger, Norway – 28 June 2023 – Gateway.fm, the first truly decentralized blockchain infrastructure node provider, has announced a strategic partnership with next generation EVM blockchain LUKSO. Gateway.fm will provide public RPC endpoints for the LUKSO Testnet and Mainnet.

LUKSO was co-founded by esteemed blockchain veterans Marjorie Hernandez and Fabian Vogelsteller – former Lead DApp Developer at Ethereum and author of ERC-20. The pair launched the layer 1 blockchain with a mission to bring blockchain technology to its next frontier by providing the building blocks and digital base layer for all creative types to enter and seamlessly converge in the new creative economies. A core pillar of LUKSO’s network is Universal Profiles – which are interoperable blockchain based profiles that enable verifiable identities in the digital world, while allowing creators and users to tap into the full potential of Web3.

Since coming to market, Gateway has received strong market validation for its ‘Grow’, ‘Access’ and ‘Jumpstart’ solutions from a range of top industry heavyweights including Gnosis, Ethereum Foundation, NEAR, Polygon Labs, as well as 1inch. As core developers for Gnosis and Erigon, the Gateway team has an innate ability to modify the underlying technology to a specific application for a range of purposes and projects.

As a leading Web3 infrastructure company, Gateway.fm is focused on building decentralized RPC solutions that don’t rely on centralized services such as Amazon Web Services (AWS).  The Gateway Grow solution is built for institutional staking validators across several Proof-of-Stake (POS) chains like Ethereum, Gnosis and IXO. Gateway Access is the company’s dedicated, cost-effective RPC node service built for scale, which currently supports ETH, Fantom, NEAR and Gnosis. Gateway Jumpstart enables new blockchains, appchains and protocols to accelerate Mainnet launch and drive user adoption.

Cuautemoc Weber, Co-Founder and CEO of Gateway.fm said: “Collaborating with LUKSO is a signature partnership for Gateway, and represents a strong vote of confidence from one of the core shapers of the Ethereum ecosystem Fabian Vogelsteller. We continue to set a new standard for building bespoke infrastructure solutions for our growing roster of partners, and we are always on the lookout for ambitious Web3 projects who share our vision for true decentralization.”

Fabian Vogelsteller, Founder of LUKSO said: “The interests between LUKSO and Gateway are aligned, and we are both on a mission to make the Web3 ecosystem as accessible as Web2. Their team’s extensive infrastructure knowledge and core development experience will be invaluable in providing public RPC endpoints for our Testnet and Mainnet, and we are very excited to work with Temoc, Igor and the stellar Gateway team in the months ahead.”
