In this article we will present to you the following list of really useful community ran tools in Mina blockchain, but before we hop in right away, some of you are still not familiar with Mina Protocol. So, here’s a quick introduction of this very promising blockchain.
What is Mina?
Mina is the first cryptocurrency protocol with a succinct blockchain. Current cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum store hundreds of gigabytes of data, and as time goes on, their blockchains will only increase in size. With Mina however, no matter how much the usage grows, the blockchain always stays the same size — about 22kb1 (the size of a few tweets). This means participants can quickly sync and verify the network.
This breakthrough is made possible due to zk-SNARKs — a type of succinct cryptographic zero-knowledge proof. Each time a Mina node produces a new block, it also generates a SNARK proof verifying that the block was valid. All nodes can then store the small proof, as opposed to the entire chain. By not having to worry about block size, the Mina protocol enables a blockchain that is decentralized at scale.
Introduction aside, let’s finally hop in to the following list of community ran tools in Mina blockchain.

· Syd
I manage a staking service for the French Community as a validator on the Mina protocol. The goal is to provide a welcoming and simple-to-use service based on proximity and one-on-one communication in French. As we attempt to educate people about Mina staking and the protocol in general, community and listening play an important role.
