How to run a Masternode?

  1. Lock the collateral

    Acquire and lock 10,000 PIVX as collateral in your control wallet.

  2. Choose the server

    Run your own VPS or use Masternode.space, with hosting from about $1.

  3. Configure the wallet

    Create and configure the Masternode in the PIVX Core Wallet or with MyPIVXWallet.

  4. Start, monitor and earn

    Activate it from your control wallet. Your Masternode now secures the network and earns rewards automatically.

02 // Masternode scarcity

The protocol allows more. The economics allow far fewer.

Supply defines the absolute ceiling. Current staking yield, Masternode rewards, PIVX price and hosting costs define the much smaller economic capacity.

Important: These are not reserved protocol slots. “Economically viable” is a point-in-time estimate where net Masternode APR approaches current staking APR. Price, rewards, network participation, hosting costs and active-node count can change the result.

03 // Reward simulator

Expected reward per Masternode when N Masternodes exist

Masternodes--
Approx. return-- Annual return (APR) APR = ((8,460 / N) x 365 / 10,000) x 100 The daily masternode rewards are shared equally across all active Masternodes. Enter a value to see the current example.
Rewards / day-- Daily rewards Rewards / day = (1,410 x 6 PIVX) / N The network produces approximately 1,410 blocks per day with 6 PIVX for Masternodes per block. Enter a value to see the current example.
Days between payouts-- Payout cadence Days between payouts = N / 1,410 Masternodes are paid sequentially. More active nodes mean a longer average wait between payouts. Enter a value to see the current example.
