Why Run Node?
Glob's storage backbone is powered by permissionless nodes. Here's why you should run one.
Earn Per Blob Served
Each time your node serves verified data, you earn protocol rewards. Earnings scale with uptime and bandwidth served.
Lightweight and Efficient
Glob nodes are optimized for modern commodity hardware. No GPU. No megabytes of state bloat. Just pure blob data.
Decentralized by Design
Nodes participate in permissionless blob validation and replication. No single point of failure. No central operators.
Real-Time Contribution
Nodes don't just store data — they actively participate in blob upload, audit, sync, and proof validation.
Globally Connected
Every node is part of a shard-local gossip network. Data availability is instant across peers with low-latency relays.
Proof-backed Commitment
Running a node will require a minimum stake (token TBA) to ensure security and honest participation. This acts as a lightweight Sybil resistance and adds accountability to node behavior.
