This is a unique opportunity to complete a series of tasks and receive test tokens. The race is designed for validators looking to make useful contributions to the Story blockchain network.
The Story Validator Race is organized by the Stekeme team with the support of the Story team. Participation in this contest does not guarantee entry into the mainnet or any airdrop. The race is designed as an opportunity for validators to earn test tokens and demonstrate their skills. Our goal is to give validators a platform to showcase their abilities and connect with the community, while mitigating the risk of multi-account participation. For the Story team, this contest is a valuable opportunity to compile a list of experienced validators, though any further actions with this list are at the discretion of the Story team.
The main goal of the race is to distribute test tokens to validators who actively participate in the network and make meaningful contributions to the project.
To start the race, you need to complete the first task. After its successful completion and approval via pull request, you will be able to move on to the next stage. Important: the tasks must be completed sequentially. The next step will only be available after the previous step is completed.
Please note that the STAKEME team may reject your PR if they believe you are a multi-accuser or have not completed the tasks properly. The first task is not subject to appeal.
The first step requires you to introduce yourself and your activities as a validator. Your submission should include:
- Information about your validator.
- The networks in which you validate.
- Recent contributions you have made to blockchain projects. Once your application is approved, you can move on to the second task.
Task acceptance is over
In this task, you will have to install and launch an archive node in Iliad Testnet. This will demonstrate your skills in deploying the node.
Deadline: 11 September 10:00 UTC
After successfully launching the archive node, you will need to provision public endpoints so that other users can interact with your node, starting from the first block.
Deadline: 11 September 10:00 UTC
In the last step, you must prepare and launch a validator node. This will prove that your node is ready to perform the validation function and keep the network running.
Deadline: 11 September 10:00 UTC
After successfully completing all four tasks you will receive:
- 1300 IP test tokens for participation.
- A special STAKEME role in our Discord community. Holders of this role will receive 3 IP test tokens daily.
