Cointelegraph has launched the Cointelegraph Decentralization Guardians (CTDG) initiative to give Web3 a more transparent and resilient foundation. By operating institutional-grade validators across ecosystems such asSolana, Injective, Polkadot, Coreum, Chiliz, Mantra, Aleo and Canton, CTDG strengthens network security while making core infrastructure activity easier for users to observe.
The introduction of the CTDG Dev Hub developed in collaboration with blockchain company Boosty Labs, aims to bring the same level of transparency to the development process itself. Instead of letting technical coordination happen behind closed doors, the Dev Hub makes it possible for developers, validators and networks to work together in real time in a public, visible space.
Why the CTDG Dev Hub was built
The mission behind the CTDG Dev Hub aligns with CTDG’s broader goal of making Web3 infrastructure more open, visible and community-driven. The Hub gives communities a direct view of the proposals, discussions, and decisions that shape the evolution of the network by making core development activity public.
It provides a space where contributors can publish and track upgrade proposals while working directly with validators and development teams. They can also follow the full progression of work, from early concepts to deployed code, within a single transparent framework. In doing so, the Hub turns decentralized innovation into a process that is collaborative, discoverable and verifiable in real time.
What’s inside CTDG Dev Hub
The Dev Hub is designed around clarity and collaboration, providing contributors with a structured way to participate without the silos that have historically hindered progress. To make this possible, the Dev Hub organizes its core functions into four clear sections that illustrate how ideas evolve from discussion to deployed code.
Proposals: Turning scattered ideas into traceable progress
A proposal is the first step in any upgrade or change to governance. The Dev Hub gives each proposal a clear status, starting with “submitted” and moving on to “in review,” “in testing,” and finally “deployed.” Users can follow development as it happens rather than encountering changes only after the fact.
Networks: A clearer view across the chains users rely on
Every supported blockchain has its own dedicated page, featuring open proposals, active contributors, and a history of upgrades. Users can view how their favorite networks are evolving in one place, rather than having to search through multiple channels.
Community discussions: Where decisions move from theory to action
The Dev Hub brings together technical discussions that would otherwise be scattered. It also brings validator teams, developers and network representatives into an open forum so that users can see how decisions are made, where disagreements come from, and how consensus is reached.
Documentation and learning: Lowering the barrier to participation
To help new contributors join governance and development efforts, the Hub includes guides, templates and testing frameworks. This makes the process easier to understand and moves blockchain development away from tribal knowledge and toward clear, verifiable documentation.
What the CTDG Dev Hub means for the community
The Dev Hub creates value across the entire ecosystem. Developers get a structured way to propose, build and showcase contributions that work across networks. Validators can see upcoming upgrades and have a more reliable way to coordinate testing and governance. A clear improvement environment where ideas, feedback and code can be followed from start to finish creates community trust.
The launch of the CTDG Dev Hub represents more than a technical rollout. It is the outcome of months of coordinated work between CTDG teams, network partners, validators and governance coordinators, all focused on ensuring smooth integration with real blockchain environments.
Boosty Labs, a blockchain infrastructure and Web3 development firm, collaborated with CTDG during the initial rollout of the Dev Hub. Their team supported the early development phase by helping prepare example proposals, testing workflows and ensuring the platform launched with real, practical use cases.
The Hub is already live for early contributors, providing initial test proposals and validator documentation that reflect the platform’s practical foundations.
What comes next for the CTDG Dev Hub
The Dev Hub is the first step to connect the decentralization ecosystem through shared tools, governance insights and validator collaboration. Upcoming releases will introduce multi-network validator performance dashboards, AI-driven proposal summaries and indexing, and cross-network governance metrics that reinforce transparency and accountability across Web3.
The launch of the CTDG Dev Hub marks the start of a long-term initiative to make decentralized development more open and actively participatory. Developers, validators and network representatives are invited to explore the CTDG Dev Hub, engage with live proposals and contribute new ones as the platform continues to expand.
