Alec here, CEO of Tenderize Labs - We are happy to announce the public launch of Tenderize V2 testnet!

[Twitter thread announcement here.](https://twitter.com/tenderize_me/status/1725182618717794770?s=20) - We are eager to hear from the GRT community.

Tenderize is a fully permissionless liquid staking protocol allowing users to liquid stake MATIC, GRT, LPT, and ETH (coming soon) with validator-specific tokens. Tenderize enables liquid staking without compromising a decentralized validator set, delivering a liquid staking experience as close to native staking as possible.
