Checker Node Onboarding Period End: Delegate Your Nodes Now!

Community

Aethir's Mainnet went live on 12 June, when our massive network of over 91,000+ Checker Nodes started to accumulate daily ATH rewards. To reward our loyal community of Checker Node holders, we decided to give all nodes a 100% Checker reward rate during the onboarding phase of our Checker Node network between 12 June and 27 June. All Checker Nodes earned the maximum 15% ATH rewards during this period.

The onboarding period is ending, so Checker Node holders need to delegate their Checker licenses to Checker Client operators. From 28 June, only active Checker Nodes delegated to node operators will earn daily ATH rewards because that's when they'll start conducting Checker tasks to support the daily operations of the Aethir DePIN stack.

You can either run your own Checker Client CLI/GUI on your PC or laptop or delegate your Checker Node licenses to one of Aethir's trustworthy Nodes-as-a-Service (NaaS) partners.

In both cases, the process is quite simple. We've prepared a detailed step-by-step tutorial video for Checker Node holders on how to use the Aethir Checker Portal

Delegating your Checker Node licenses only takes a few minutes. Once delegated, Checker Nodes will automatically earn daily rewards. As a reminder, 15% of the ATH supply is reserved for Checker Node rewards during the next four years. 

Our Official Nodes-as-a-Service Partners

Delegating your Checker Nodes to a NaaS provider is a great way to enjoy a plug-and-play node operating experience.

However, it's highly recommended to only choose a reputable and trusted provider to delegate your nodes to.
