Validators play a key role in ensuring the security and decentralization of the MFX Network. The network is already running on mainnet, and we invite early validators to join the ecosystem.
Validators confirm blocks and transactions, ensuring network integrity and security.
Maintain high network availability, ensuring continuous infrastructure operation.
Participate in network decentralization, increasing its resilience and reliability.
Participate in network governance and parameter decisions.
Details of the reward model and specific parameters will be clarified as the network develops.
Slashing mechanisms will be introduced gradually with prior notification to validators.
Make sure your server meets the hardware and connectivity requirements listed above.
Deploy and synchronize the MFX node on your server. Detailed node installation instructions will be published in the documentation.
Create a key pair for the validator. Important: store the private key in a secure location and make backups. Losing the key means losing access to the validator.
Register your validator in the network through a special registration process. Process details will be provided upon request.
Set up a monitoring system to track node status, uptime and performance. Configure alerts for critical events (node failure, synchronization issues, etc.).
Make sure your node successfully participates in consensus and is visible in the list of active network validators. Check that you are receiving rewards for confirming blocks.
A: Yes, you can use a cloud server (AWS, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, etc.), but it's important to ensure the provider's stability and its policy regarding blockchain nodes. Some providers may have restrictions or require special agreements. Also consider that cloud servers can be more expensive for long-term operation.
A: Tokenomics parameters and deposit requirements may be clarified as the network develops. At an early stage, the network welcomes validators with different levels of participation. Specific requirements will be communicated when contacting about validator registration.
A: Monitor official announcements about upcoming protocol updates. Validators will receive notifications in advance with instructions for updating the node. It's important to update the node in a timely manner to avoid missing new blocks and losing rewards.
A: It's recommended to set up automatic monitoring with alerts for critical events. At minimum, check node status once a day, but it's better to have a monitoring system that will notify you of problems in real time.
A: If problems arise, contact technical support through the contacts listed in the "Contacts" section. We will help resolve technical issues and answer questions about validator operation.
Currently, validator recruitment is done manually. If you want to become a validator of MFX Network, please contact us through the contacts listed below.
