Choosing an approach

Shardeum's dynamic state sharding enables horizontal scalability, making node operation accessible to everyone. With minimal hardware and a user-friendly interface, regular users can run validator nodes, contributing to network decentralization and security while earning rewards.

To run a Shardeum validator, first choose the approach that best suits your experience level and requirements.

Regardless of the approach you choose, operating a node on Shardeum remains cost-effective. As the network expands and traffic increases, Shardeum's dynamic state sharding technology ensures that node operation costs stay low.
