Our validator icon is a tribute to when we operated the lpSOL liquid staking token (details below).

Sign Labs runs on higher hardware specs than recommended by Solana Foundation, and we have one of the highest performing un-modded validators on the network in terms of block latency. Our validator fees are competitive without slowing down block production, demonstrated by an IBRL score 15% higher than the network average. Details on block production speeds can be found at Solana Compass and proof of fair, fast block production at IBRL.wtf
