Become a Root Node
The Root Nodes are a type of stakeholder unique to Q. They are an independent set of full nodes whose duty it is to enforce compliance with the Q Constitution. Unlike the Validator Nodes, Root Nodes disclose their identity and must be voted into position by the Q Token Holders.
Enable good governance via Root Nodes
Take advantage of our Root Node panel, which is diversified both by geography and industry, and move beyond “code is law”.
Root Nodes provide an added layer of security and ensure good governance by upholding the Q Constitution. They play a central role in overseeing the constitutionality of actions taken on the Q Blockchain. This multiplies the complexity for any attack on the chain, surpassing the integrity of earlier generation blockchains and achieving a maximum level of trust and independence within the Root Node panel.
