A validator plays an essential role in our network and is responsible for crucial tasks, including block production and transaction confirmation. A validator needs to maintain a high communication response capability to ensure the seamless operation of the Uomi ecosystem.
Validators maintain our ecosystem by collecting transactions from users and validating blocks securing the network.
Performance of the network depends directly on validators. To ensure optimal performance of the network, a slashing mechanism is implemented.
Validators are a key element of UOMI-ENGINE, they executes Agents when a request is made by an user, and save the output for the OPoC
To join the election process you must register for a validator and bond tokens, see Validator Requirements for details. When your node fits the parameters and checks all the boxes to become a validator, it will be added to the chain. Note: if your validator doesn’t produce blocks during two sessions (2h) it will be kicked out.
At every block you produced as a validator, rewards will automatically be transferred to your account. The reward includes block reward + fees + Agents fees.
A slashing mechanism is implemented on Uomi and Finney networks - a validator that doesn't produce blocks during two sessions (2 hours) will be slashed 1% of its total stake and kicked out of the active validator set. This slashing ensures the best block rate and prevents malicious actors from harming the network without financial consequences.
