A validator node is a server that participates in validating transactions and creating new blocks in the blockchain. In the Kroma project, validator nodes are crucial for maintaining the security and stability of the network.
Running a validator node allows you to participate in the Kroma network, earn rewards for validating transactions, and support the decentralization of the network.
The process of running a validator node involves preparing the hardware, installing the necessary software, configuring the settings, and launching the node. It requires minimal technical knowledge and the appropriate hardware.
