Node Operators

Validators

Validators play a crucial role in the Hyperliquid network by:

  • Validating transactions

  • Producing blocks

  • Securing the blockchain

Validator performance can vary based on factors like:

  • Uptime and reliability

  • Quality and frequency of block proposals

  • Adherence to network rules (avoiding slashing events)

As the network matures, validators and node operators will have more tools, metrics, and best practices at their disposal.

Non-Validating Nodes

Non-validating nodes help the network by providing additional services:

  • Accessing and serving data

  • Supporting EVM functionality

  • Contributing to network resilience without participating in block production
