New Corporate Baker Telindus Announces Solution For Nodes, Compliant To Regulations For The Financial Industry On Tezos

Telindus Becomes A Corporate Baker In The Tezos Ecosystem

Telindus is a Luxembourg-based ICT and Telecom solutions provider and a subsidiary of Proximus Group, a Belgium provider of digital services and communication services with a revenue of over 5.5 billion Euros in 2021.  

Choose Your Baker 

In particular, Telindus plans to implement the “Choose Your Baker” solution developed by Coexya, an independent and multi-specialist leader in the digital industry that operates as an integrator, software publisher and consulting firm.

Thanks to this open-source solution, Telindus is able to filter out validation nodes that do not meet its compliance criteria such as certain regulatory requirements related to the fight against money laundering and the financing of terrorism (LBT/FT).

An integration made possible with the advice and technical support of Nomadic Labs, the largest R&D center in the Tezos ecosystem.

 Corporate baker

Telindus announced that they became a corporate baker on the Tezos blockchain.  A company that sets up a Tezos node, is playfully called a corporate baker. 

Telindus become the 26th corporate baker in the Tezos ecosystem.

A Corporate baker is not a special type of baker with any special position within the Tezos ecosystem.

The fact that this baker will be run by a corporation simply emphasizes the amount of trust and involvement corporations show in the Tezos blockchain.

Additionally, setting up a node/ baker enables them to play an active role in the democratic Tezos protocol and have a voice in the direction of core protocol development via amendment upgrades.

It essentially gives them a stake in the blockchain that they are running programs and applications on.
