Validator & Relayer Requirements

To participate in the Torram network, validators and relayers must meet both technical and economic criteria to ensure network security and operational efficiency.

- Hardware Requirements: Validators must run hardware with at least 24GB of memory and 1TB of storage, either on personal machines or cloud platforms such as AWS and GCP.

- Staking Requirements: Validators must stake between 10,000 and 100,000 tokens (TBD), ensuring commitment and accountability within the network.

Since Torram operates natively on Bitcoin, validators and relayers must also hold BTC to pay transaction fees when publishing data. During the test net phase, participants will use test BTC, while on the main net, real BTC will be required to publish transactions to Bitcoin.
