Why Run a Validator Node on Qubetics?
Running a validator node on Qubetics isn’t just about earning rewards—it’s about becoming part of a growing, decentralized future. Here’s why thousands are joining the movement:
1. Be Part of a Scalable Ecosystem
Qubetics is built for horizontal scalability. Every new validator strengthens the network, helping it process more transactions without compromising speed or security.
2. Earn Reliable, Passive Income
Validators are rewarded for securing the network, earning consistent returns from block rewards and transaction fees. The more you stake, the more you earn.
3. Help Secure True Decentralization
Qubetics promotes open participation. By running a node, you reduce reliance on centralized validators and contribute directly to a more secure, trustless system.
4. No Technical Setup Needed
With Instanodes, there’s no need for coding, servers, or manual configuration. It’s a streamlined, user-friendly experience, designed so anyone can participate.
5. Keep Full Control
Your keys, your tokens, your rewards. Instanodes offers full transparency and non-custodial control, so you never lose ownership of your assets.

What Makes a Great Validator?
Operating a node is one thing—being an excellent validator is another. It’s not about staking tokens alone; it’s about appearing with consistency, dependability, and dedication to decentralization.
Excellent validators have their nodes up and running 24/7, have high uptime, track performance, and move swiftly when problems occur. They grasp that their work directly affects the well-being, speed, and security of the blockchain network.
But here’s the best part: you don’t have to be a developer or maintain your own servers to be one. Instanodes provides you with enterprise-level infrastructure, automated monitoring, and real-time alerts, so you can concentrate on maximizing rewards, not debugging.
What if a validator fails to extend its subscription?
If a validator node shuts down (either goes offline or is permanently closed) on the Qubetics blockchain, the outcome for validator and delegator funds depends on how and why the validator shuts down.
- Temporary Downtime (Validator Goes Offline)
If a validator goes offline temporarily. Delegator Funds are Safe; they do not lose their tokens but stop earning staking rewards while the validator is inactive.
Validator Funds are initially safe. However, if the validator misses too many blocks, it will be jailed (temporarily removed from the active set). To become active again, the validator must submit an unjail transaction. This will deduct the Penalty. If jailed, a 1% slashing penalty is applied. Both the validator and its delegators lose 1% of their bonded tokens.
- Validator Misbehaves (Slashable Behavior like Double Signing)
If the validator commits a slashable offense (e.g., double-signing blocks). Validator is Slashed — a percentage of the self-bonded stake is destroyed, and delegators are also Slashed, the same percentage is applied to their bonded tokens. This will deduct the Penalty. The slashing amount is 5% for such offenses. Both validator and delegators lose 5% of their bonded tokens.
- Validator Shuts Down Permanently (Graceful Exit)
If a validator unbonds its own stake and intentionally shuts down. The validator is removed from the active set. Delegator funds remain safe, but Delegators must manually redelegate to another validator or unbond their stake through the delegator app and Keplr wallet.
If they do not act, their tokens remain bonded but earn no rewards. Delegators can withdraw their tokens after the unbonding period (14 days), and the amount goes to their account.
Note on Slashed Funds: Any slashed tokens (from downtime or misbehavior) are sent to the community pool. These funds can be used later via on-chain governance. To withdraw community funds, a governance proposal must be submitted, specifying:
- The amount,
- The destination address and the purpose.
- Validators and delegators vote on the proposal. If passed, the funds are released to the specified address. If rejected, the funds remain in the community pool.
Important: No single individual or signer can access or move these funds. Only governance voting can authorize their release.
What are the potential risks and outcomes if a validator node shuts down?
If you’ve decided to stop running your validator node and cancel your subscription, you’ll lose your participation rights in Qubetics’ consensus process. Since we’ve already allocated dedicated resources for your setup, you’ll continue to bear the server costs as long as your instance is active.
We don’t delete your setup immediately because we understand that you might need time to reconsider. That’s why we offer a 7-day grace period before any action is taken.
Grace Period and Notifications
- When Your Subscription Is About to Expire: You’ll receive reminder emails for a full week leading up to the expiration date, so you have enough time to take action if needed.
- If You Choose to Unsubscribe: You’ll enter a 7-day grace period, during which we’ll keep you informed about the benefits of staying subscribed and the potential downsides of discontinuing, giving you the space to make an informed decision.
- Stake withdrawal opportunity: Use this time to safely withdraw your staked funds without penalties.
- Resource maintenance: Your allocated computational resources and infrastructure remain active during this grace period.
Your Options During the Grace Period
Option 1: Complete Withdrawal
- Withdraw your staked tokens.
- Permanently discontinue validator operations.
- Resources will be deallocated after the grace period ends.
Option 2: Reactivation
- Reconsider your decision and resubscribe to your validator plan.
- Continue your active role in the Qubetics network.
- Maintain your existing resource allocation and setup.
Time to Reconsider and Resubscribe
- All computational resources and infrastructure allocations remain unchanged during the 7-day grace period.
- No immediate resource deallocation occurs to give you flexibility in your decision.
- Resubscription during this period allows seamless continuation of validator activities.
Final Thoughts
Qubetics is redefining what’s possible with Layer 1 blockchains, and running a validator node puts you right at the center of it. With Instanodes, it’s never been easier to participate.
