Becoming AVS Operator

Node Operators in the Exocore Network

Operators, comprising both individuals and organizations, serve as integral participants in the Exocore Network. Upon registration, these entities facilitate the delegation of staked assets from stakeholders, including native tokens and Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs). Subsequently, Node Operators have the opportunity to offer a diverse array of services to Active Validator Sets (AVSs), thereby contributing to the enhancement of network security and operational efficiency.

Operator Register

For operators who want to operate the AVS, they need to firstly register into the Exocore Network

exocored tx operator register-operator \\
    <meta-info> \\
    <from> \\
    <commission-rate> \\
    <commission-max-rate> \\
    <commission-max-change-rate> \\
    <home> \\
    <chain-id> \\
    <keyring-backend> \\
    <fees>

where

  • <meta-info> the operator's meta info (like name)

  • <from> the sender's address which is used to approve the delegations made to the operator.

  • <commission-rate> the commission rate of the operator. It is a decimal between 0 and 1, expressed as a percentage.

  • <commission-max-rate> the maximum commission rate for the operator. It is also a decimal between 0 and 1, expressed as a percentage.

  • <commission-max-change-rate> the maximum rate of change in the operator's commission rate. It is also a decimal between 0 and 1, expressed as a percentage.

  • <home> refers to the path of Exocore's node home directory.

  • <chain-id> the chain ID of the Exocore network.

  • <keyring-backend> the backend type of Exocore key repository. In the above example, it is set to 'test' as the backend type.

  • <fees> the fees that need to be paid in this operation.

Query Status

Verifying Registered Operator Information Status

To check the registration status of your operator, utilize the following command:

exocored query operator GetOperatorInfo <OPERATOR_ADDRESS>

For example:

exocored query operator GetOperatorInfo 0x1f9840a85d5af5bf1d1762f925bdaddc4201f984
