Openos Validator Initiatives

There are a number of initiatives that may help operators get started or grow their delegation. All of these initiatives are completely optional. All Openos clusters are permissionless and an operator can join at any time.

Openos Foundation Delegation Program​

The Openos Foundation helps facilitate the growth of the consensus validator network by running a BTG delegation program. The program is open to new applicants. You can find out more information

Tour De Sun 22​

Delegation program participants who operate a performant testnet node, may also join Tour De Sun 22 (TdS22). The program gives locked BTG incentive payments to operators for running approved hardware on Testnet. For more information, see TdS22.

Openos Foundation Server Program​

Separately from the delegation program, The Openos Foundation offers a server program that provides servers in various data-centers all over the world. If you would like to run a consensus validator or RPC node, you may use this program to rent bare metal servers in various data-centers. The servers meet or exceed the Openos validator hardware specs. No long-term lease commitments are required.

Stake Pools​

The Openos ecosystem operates various stake pools. These stake pools delegate stake to validators using various delegation strategies. To learn more about stake pools and their delegation strategies.
