Masternodes

Simply defined, a masternode is a server which operates to validate transactions in a decentralized network of computational devices that are connected under a consensus-based protocol. In that sense, it is similar to normal servers (nodes), but it has few extra special features associated with it, hence it is called a masternode. You will find below some platforms where you can operate full masternodes or participate in pooled masternodes. Some of the platforms presented in our Staking section also provide masternodes services.
