Why did Switchboard choose to re-pledge in Jito NCN?

🔹 NCN functions similarly to the Active Validation Service (AVS) on Ethereum (ETH), meaning that Switchboard has access to a network of node operators on Jito. These node operators help pass on-chain data and secure the network through a staking mechanism.

🔹 Switchboard With Jito NCN, stakers can leverage collateral such as JitoSOL, which can be re-pledged to generate new yield opportunities.

🔹 In addition to stakers, developers and protocols using Switchboard can also benefit from a secure and decentralized network to build and deploy decentralized applications.
