Join the AXEL Network
Become a part of our growing team of Masternodes. These members anchor the revolutionary AXEL Go file-sharing platform by securing and authenticating our decentralized network.
As an AXEL Masternode holder, you are an active stakeholder in the construction of the largest distributed network in the world. You are a part of a dedicated community committed to creating a next-generation file-sharing platform.
To ensure easy access for participants and stability for the network, we created a tiered Masternode system.
Tier 1 Masternode
Tier 1 Masternodes carry the complete copy of our blockchain. They are distributed throughout the world to serve as the core components of our network.
The network is projected to host 50 Tier 1 Masternodes.
Tier 2 Masternode
Tier 2 Masternodes perform many essential functions. They serve as IPFS gateways that allow web users to access our distributed network. They also host the Masternode wallets used to store AXEL Tokens.
The network is projected to host 1500 Tier 2 Masternodes.
Tier 3 Masternode
Tier 3 Masternodes also host IPFS gateways that allow AXEL Go to function properly. They provide the fewest barriers to entry and allow operators of all means to become stakeholders.
The network is projected to host 4000 Tier 3 Masternodes.
A Proof-of-Stake (PoS) Utility Token
The AXEL blockchain is backed by a Proof-of-Stake algorithm. In this method, our Masternode holders stake a certain amount of AXEL Tokens as collateral before they are deployed in the network. Masternode hosts then receive token rewards for their participation.
Proof-of-Stake consensus doesn’t require the competitive “mining” found in the alternative, Proof-of-Work, method. Mining requires an extraordinary amount of computing power, and therefore energy consumption. This makes Proof-of-Stake the more sustainable, environmentally-friendly choice.
AXEL Masternodes power the blockchain behind our global network. Thanks to AXEL Tokens, they have a vested interest in its security, integrity, and overall success. You can find our White Paper here to learn more.
