Why Run a Node?

Running a full node makes you a first-class participant in the Soqucoin network.

Self-Sovereignty

Verify your own transactions without trusting third parties. Your node, your rules.

Privacy

Don't leak your addresses to public explorers. Query the blockchain privately on your own node.

Network Health

More nodes means faster sync times for everyone and a more resilient, decentralized network.

Node Types

Seed Nodes

3-5 needed globally

Help new nodes discover peers via DNS. Once a node connects, it doesn't need seeds anymore.

Full Nodes

The more the better

Validate transactions, store the blockchain, and serve data to other nodes. This is what you'll run.
