Populous Joins DEP Protocol as Genesis Validator

Populous is joining the DEP protocol as a Genesis validator through its validator operation brand, FP Validated. On the 12th, Populous announced that it will join as a Genesis validator of the DEP protocol mainnet and will promote collaboration in the Asian market with its development and operating company, Digital Entertainment Asset (DEA). FP Validated plans to operate verification nodes on its own infrastructure in line with the launch of the Genesis validators scheduled for the end of November. The Genesis validators are limited to 24 founding operators, and Anseta has also joined. The DEP protocol is an Avalanche-based Layer 1 infrastructure that analyzes everyday smartphone usage patterns and scores the likelihood that such behavior originated from a person. Original behavioral data is not transmitted outside the device. Populous plans to introduce research covering technology and use cases with DEA and connect its partner network to explore joint project opportunities. Jeong Jae-hwan, co-founder of Populous and head of the validator division, noted the approach of the DEP protocol and expressed excitement about participating in network operations as a Genesis validator.
