Gnodi Protocol — Node Economics
Earn by securing a compliant network.
The Gnodi Protocol uses a dual-node architecture — validator nodes secure the chain, consensus nodes provide compliance attestation. Both earn rewards. Both participate in governance.
Node Architecture
Two nodes. One network.
Validator Node
Block proposal and finality signing
- ›Proposes new blocks in CometBFT round-robin rotation
- ›Signs pre-commit votes during Tendermint consensus rounds
- ›Maintains full transaction history and state
- ›Subject to slashing on double-sign or extended downtime
Reward
Primary block reward + transaction fees
Requirement
Must pass Veracore identity verification
Consensus Node
Vote weighting and compliance attestation
- ›Provides compliance attestation on proposed blocks
- ›Weighted vote in governance proposals
- ›Runs Veracore compliance hook locally against each transaction
- ›Reports anomalies to Veracore Compliance Group
Reward
Attestation reward + governance fee share
Requirement
Requires Veracore compliance license

Token Utility
What the Gnodi token does.
The Gnodi network token is a utility token designed for staking, governance participation, transaction fee payment, and validator rewards. It is not a security, speculative instrument, or investment vehicle.
Token economics documentation is provided to verified node operators and institutional partners under NDA. Contact our IR team for full documentation.
Staking collateral for validator and consensus nodes
Governance vote weight in protocol proposals
Network fee payment (gas equivalent)
Validator and attestation reward distribution
Delegation — token holders may delegate stake to node operators
On-Chain Governance
What validators vote on.
Protocol parameters
Block time, slashing thresholds, gas limits, and consensus quorum — all governable by validator vote.
Compliance rule updates
Veracore publishes rule updates as governance proposals. Validators ratify before activation.
Node admission
New validator and consensus node applications are reviewed and admitted through on-chain governance.
Token distribution events
Reward schedule changes and any new token issuance events require supermajority governance approval.
Acquire a node.
Node licenses are available through the Block Reign node marketplace. Institutional applicants only — Veracore identity verification required.
