Station Node Operators are now earning FIL for contributing to the Filecoin Retrieval Market!
TL;DR
- The Station Network has begun payments to node operators
- Node operators are now running SPARK, a module that samples retrievals from Filecoin Storage Providers using a trustless protocol
- Station’s global worker network is a deployment target for module builders
What is Station?
The Station Network enables anyone to provide their underutilized hardware resources - such as storage, compute, or bandwidth - to a global worker network in exchange for tokens. The network of Station nodes is a deployment target for builders. Builders can save on deployment costs, benefit from a large heterogeneous and globally distributed network, and truly analyze their product from a user perspective.
Station’s mission is to allow anyone to easily join the Web3 economy as a Station Node Operator without needing to understand Crypto Wallets, Staking, and other concepts. Joining the network is as easy as downloading a desktop app like Spotify, after which the operator will begin earning. Presently, Station nodes are only running the first module called SPARK, and rewards will grow as more modules are built.
