Before You Begin

You should now have access to the Constellation Network Official Discord server via an invite provided for Node Operators.

At this point, your VPS should be fully configured and operating as a Constellation Validator Node.

If you believe any steps were missed, please revisit the previous documents to ensure all required tasks are completed before moving forward.

Constellation Network Official Discord Server

Return to or join the Constellation Network Discord server, and reach out to a Discord Administrator who holds the Admin or Team Lead role (visible next to their username).

Important Security Reminder

An Admin or Team Lead will never message you first, ask for money, request that you connect your wallet to third-party sites, or make any financial requests.

When contacting an Admin or Team Lead, be prepared to present your Node ID so they can submit it to the internal team for processing. You may be required to confirm your email, this should only be confirmed by an Official Constellation Network Team Member.

Stargazer Wallet

You will need to create and own a Stargazer Wallet

Production Specific

In order to qualify to run a node on Constellation Network's production MainNet Hypergraph cluster, or Dor metagraph cluster, you will need to collateralize your node through your Stargazer wallet.

Cluster Name
Hypergraph or metagraph
Token
Amount

MainNet

Hypergraph

$DAG

250,000

IntegrationNet

Hypergraph

$DAG

250,000

Dor

metagraph

$DOR

1,000,000

This step is required to meet the staking threshold and ensure your node is eligible for cluster participation.

Please follow guide to import your node’s wallet into your Stargazer Wallet, and transfer $DAG and or $DOR before attempting to join the cluster.
