Node registration will open on October 18th at 7:00pm PT (October 19th, 02:00 UTC). An additional three hundred nodes will be able to register.

The registration process is simple. Node operators should upgrade to version 1.2.1. The process takes about 15 seconds. Nodes will automatically attempt to register when started.

IMPORTANT: Version 1.2.1 of the Chainpoint Node software will be released moments before registration opens.

Requirements:

  • Upgrade to version 1.2.1 of the Chainpoint Node software
  • The minimum required TNT balance per node is 5,000 TNT

The node registration limit will be periodically increased to allow additional nodes to register. This process will repeat until three hundred nodes have registered.

When this registration event is complete, there will be approximately five hundred registered nodes. Once testing with five hundred nodes has been completed, registration will be open to an additional fixed number of nodes.

We aim to have a diverse set of nodes from a wide variety of node operators. For those wishing to participate, we recommend preparing one or two nodes that meet the new registration requirements.

We plan on scaling the number of nodes throughout the launch phase, which we expect to last several weeks. During this period, there will be regular updates to the software, network, and node requirements.
