Blockdaemon now supports dYdX, a leading proof-of-stake network built using the Cosmos SDK and leveraging CometBFT for achieving consensus.

**Key Features:**

- **Proof-of-Stake:** The dYdX Chain employs a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanism where DYDX holders can either become validators or delegate their DYDX tokens to a dYdX Chain validator, such as Blockdaemon.
- **Maximum Number of Validators**: Maximum of [60](https://docs.dydx.community/dydx-token-migration/dydx-chain-modules-and-parameters/staking) validators in the active set. Blockdaemon is currently in the active set.
- **Unbonding Period**: [30](https://docs.dydx.community/dydx-token-migration/dydx-chain-modules-and-parameters/staking) days.
