Validator Node Setup

Minimum Specs:

CPU: Modern multi-core processor (quad-core or higher) with a clock speed of at least 2.0 GHz (e.g., Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5).

Minimum Cores : 4

RAM: Minimum 8 GB.

Storage: Minimum 100 GB of SSD storage, strongly recommended for faster syncing and block processing.

Bandwidth: Stable internet connection with minimum 10 Mbps upload/download speed.

To become a validator, you need to possess an SS58 address, which serves as your unique identifier on the network. With this address, you can invoke the addValidator function. Before accepting you as a validator, this function verifies whether you possess a Non-Fungible Token (NFT). Only users with a valid NFT are eligible to become validators.
