## Overview

At Silk Nodes we have wanted to improve on the current services we offer to chains when we start validating them, we would almost always run public nodes RPCs and API endpoints as well as operating IBC Relayer nodes. However, as we have grown and become much more comfortable in our operations we wanted to immediately expand on the services we now provide chains, which is why we decided to build Validator Tools Bot, a unique solution for validators and projects alike providing a one-stop shop for a multitude of services including but not limited to

* Daily Node Snapshots
* Validator Status Alerts (whole chain or individual validator)
* Governance Proposal Alerts
* Live Peers
* Chain Upgrade Watcher and Upgrade Guides
* Node Installation Guides\
  \
  and much more.
