Summary
In this episode of the ATX DAO Podcast, we dive into the world of bare-metal blockchain infrastructure with Ryan Haczynski, Head of Protocol Partnerships at GlobalStake. Ryan shares how GlobalStake differentiates itself from cloud-based providers through its enterprise-grade, self-managed infrastructure and SOC 2 Type 2 certification—an industry rarity. From spinning up 56+ blockchain validators across ecosystems like Ethereum, Polkadot, Cosmos, and Solana, to strategic partnerships with platforms like Arweave and Babylon, Ryan explains how GlobalStake is positioning itself for a decentralized, institutionally integrated Web3 future.
Listeners will gain a behind-the-scenes look at the operational grit involved in running global data centers and how GlobalStake approaches capital efficiency, compliance, and decentralization. Ryan also breaks down the firm’s vision for globally distributed infrastructure, touches on the emerging potential of Bitcoin DeFi via Babylon, and explains why telecom-style resilience is the future of Web3 infra. Whether you’re an infra nerd, validator operator, or just curious how blockchains run at scale, this episode offers rare insight from one of the most hands-on teams in the space.
