Hi, this is Drew helping to lead the Commit-Boost effort. Thank you to the SSV Community for the support for Commit-Boost and generally for Ethereum. We have completed the first milestone around the SSV Grant! This included community engagement and getting Commit-Boost core functionality + PBS working with SSV. Further, that this would be audited. This has been completed with more details below. For the second part of the grant, we are working to get the signer module compatible with SSV and fully audited. We will report back once this has been completed to receive the next part of the grant! You can find more in our repo!

Hi SSV Community,

We have completed all milestones for the grant awarded to us in 2025. We have achieved all the milestones required. Below are a few highlights we are incredibly excited to share.

  • Security: We completed the full audit of Commit-Boost in two parts. The reports can be found here! Overall all critical items were closed out. We are now the first fully audited sidecar
  • Integration: Significant amount of SSV validators run Commit-Boost bringing them new features and performance. We have enhanced Commit-Boost with some features specific to SSV which makes integration even easier. Commit-Boost now stands at just under 40% adoption which wouldn’t have been possible without the SSV Community and this grant
  • Community: Over the last year we have helped host events for stakers and the broader community. We also have been engaged with various members across the SSV community around topics such as synchronous composability and based rollups, but also improved performance of DVT technology. One examples is a recent article we helped Alon on.

If there are any questions, please do reach out.

Thanks,

Drew
