We have received many inquiries about validator participation and decentralization. No modern protocol starts out in a decentralized state, and Harbor is no different. We commend @THORChain’s real decentralized values. From removing admin from its founders, to locking treasury LP in a node-owned module, to implementing its governance process (ADR), our founders were responsible for many of the practices that made THORChain as decentralized as it is today. We remain committed to bringing those same values to Harbor. It takes time!
Swap integration docs will be released soon. The trading API will open up sometime in 2026. Sources will be released prior to TGE. In the meantime, validator set is permissioned. We will release details about the Interim Validator Program soon.
