Elys Network Validators
About our validators
Validator General Information
Validators are responsible for committing new blocks to the blockchain. A validator's stake is slashed if they become unavailable or sign blocks at the same height (double sign). Please read about Sentry Node Architecture to learn how to protect your node from DDOS attacks and to ensure availability on the respective testnet or mainnet.
Validator Expectations
As part of the infrastructure backbone of the Elys Network, validators are expected to play an active role in the community by engaging with the core team and community members, primarily via Discord. Please join the Discord server here
Validator setup documents are provided here, with pertinent binaries available at the Elys Network github repository: https://github.com/elys-network/elys
