Network Security and Staking 🛡️
Securing the Metaverse: SOMI Staking and Delegated Proof-of-Stake
Somnia is secured by a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus model. To run a validator node and process transactions, participants must stake a significant amount of SOMI (e.g., 5 million SOMI). This requirement ensures validators are committed and hold a substantial financial stake in the network's integrity. Token holders who don't run a node can delegate their SOMI to active validators, earning a share of the network rewards. This system democratizes security participation while ensuring network robustness.
