Validator Operator Batch Approvals:Canquest, Finteum, Nammu21, Restabilise Ltd, Temple Digital Group Inc, XT.COM
- Validator Approval
Congratulations on having your validator approved! We're very excited to have you spin up your validator node and join us online. Please find the next steps below. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
IP Whitelisting
For IP whitelisting requests, please fill this form.
Important: Whitelisting is required for your validator node to communicate with the network environments.
Deploy Your Validator
Set up your own node using the public docs - TestNet / MainNet.
Alternatively, ask one of our partners to spin up your validator node today. Reach out via email to any of them for more information.
Note: Partner deployment can significantly speed up setup if you prefer a managed approach.
MainNet Allocation
We currently have a waitlist for deploying to MainNet, please wait for an allocation.
We recently implemented a weekly validator allocation process to manage access. The current policy prioritizes "GTM-ready" projects—those with functional builds on DevNet or TestNet ready for immediate MainNet activation.
Current capacity: 35 validators per week
Allocations processed: every Wednesday
For more details on the specific requirements and how the queue is managed, please refer to:
You can verify entries here.
Important: You will not be able to proceed to MainNet without an official allocation.
High-Level Steps
DevNet

Share the fixed IP you'd like whitelisted on DevNet for your Validator node with your SV sponsor
Spin up your node for DevNet
Request a DevNet onboarding secret - via API call (curl)
Tip: Ensure your node is fully functional on DevNet before progressing.
TestNet
Spin up your node on TestNet
Share your fixed IP you'd like whitelisted on TestNet for your Validator node with your SV sponsor
Tip: TestNet readiness is a key signal for MainNet prioritization.
MainNet
Spin up your node on MainNet
Reach out directly to your SV sponsor to request a MainNet onboarding secret after you have an allocation
