Committed to collaborating with fellow members
Trust is essential for the widespread adoption of DLT and decentralized systems, and we are committed to collaborating with fellow members and projects to build innovative, scalable solutions. We see significant potential in enhancing interoperability and are eager to advance these initiatives.
Strong governance and project longevity
The governance protocols in place help members trust that it’s not just a project today, but one that will remain reliable and valuable for 10 years or more. It will continue to be a dependable part of your software system well into the future.
Pushing the boundaries of what's possible
Joining LF Decentralized Trust fits with our goal of making web3 more accessible and shaping a new, more democratic internet.
The collection power of diverse contributions
It's the fact that you have like-minded individuals from around the world, across industries, vast experiences and backgrounds, that come together and work on projects that help drive and benefit everyone.
A breadth of ideas and approaches
I love that our community consistently challenges what we're doing. I think that it's good to not have a community-led project that's spearheaded by specific individuals, that we get a breadth of ideas, a breadth of approaches, and also because it forces us to keep Besu as an open technology.
Membership helps partner with customers
We believe blockchain is a foundational technology that will see widespread adoption by governments, businesses, and society. This engagement will help us partner with our customers in the creation of innovative business ecosystems that can benefit from the trust and transparency this technology delivers.”

Breaking out of the silos
By joining forces with the industry’s brightest minds, we are committed to connecting ecosystem participants that are currently operating in silos. We’re excited about the potential impact our collective work will have on the future of finance.
