🖥️Node

Users with excess bandwidth will be able to lend their resources to the 0xVPN Network by installing a Docker package that will take care of:

1. Onboarding and checking $VPN Stake (see $VPN Utility)

2. Discovering location and speed

3. Offering resources to the network

4. Checking bids and managing negotiations

5. Encrypting connection to clients and tracking usage

Nodes will be required to stake $VPN tokens to participate in the network in order to prevent abuse and misbehaviors.

After successfully contributing bandwidth to the network, the network will verify the activity and status of the node, without compromising security or privacy, and will accrue $VPN rewards to the node, which will be claimed after an unlocking period.
