Fastex Chain is proud to announce the launch of its mainnet with the opportunity for users to become validators at the earliest stage. Validators play a critical role in ensuring the security of the Fastex Chain network by participating in block creation and validation mechanisms.
To become a validator, individuals will need to deposit at least 8192 FTN onto the staking smart contract, run the execution and consensus clients, and set up a validator node. In addition, those who deploy smart contracts on Fastex Chain will be eligible for activity accumulation, which increases their chances of earning block validation rewards.A validator is a complete member of Fastex Chain who provides the smooth operational process of the network. That’s why the validators get awards from the network, performing the same function in PoS as the miner in PoW mechanism.
The minimum hardware/cloud server requirements for becoming a validator are the following:
A 64-bit Linux operating system.
4+ cores at 2.8+ GHz.
16GB+ RAM.
An SSD with at least 200GB of free space (1TB recommended).
8 MBit/sec broadband.
Fastex Chain requires at least 4096 validators for the mainnet launch, which is crucial for network security.
