Node Activation

To become a Validating Node (VN) in the Yamata network, users must complete several steps that combine technical setup with specific requirements.

Validating Node (VN) Activation

Node Activation Process

1. Activation Fee (in $YAMATA tokens) - to activate the node, a small amount of $YMTA tokens is required. To make the initial activation process smoother, the tokens needed for activation will be initially distributed to Node License NFT holders at the TGE.
2. Node License NFT - to become a Validating Node (VN), users will need to purchase a Node License NFT, which serves as a digital certificate granting the rights to run a validating node.
3. Hosting - users can choose to either deploy their node on a Virtual Private Server (VPS), use a Node as a Service (NaaS) provider, or choose to run the node on their own machine.
4. YAMATA Software - users must install the YAMATA software, which contains the necessary tools to operate the node, validate transactions, and participate in the order validation process.
