Did you know that with the PRT Honeypot live on Ethereum mainnet and secured by Cartesi’s permissionless PRT fraud-proof system, anyone can become a validator and run a node to participate in consensus? Here’s how to get involved ↓

To run a node and start validating, you'll need: • ETH to cover base-layer gas fees • A reliable JSON-RPC connection to Ethereum (via Infura, Alchemy, or self-hosted) Note that: • No bond is required (for now) • But future versions may add bonding to prevent Sybil attacks.

Why it matters: Validators are essential to the trustless security model of Cartesi’s appchains. • No whitelist • No permissions • Just crypto logic securing dApps. Let’s stress test the system and set the benchmark for shipping secure dApps that earn trust.
