Node Operator Onboarding

The following outlines the process for onboarding as an operator to start executing at Ditto Network.

1. Wallet Setup

Create a new Ethereum Externally Owned Account (EOA) or multisig wallet to serve as your operator identity.

Operators must generate a new wallet for each new delegator to receive stake from. Addresses cannot be changed after deployment. For best practices, we recommend using a multisig for the address.

2. Register to a Shared Security Provider of choice

Ditto Network supports:

1. Symbiotic

2. EigenLayer

3. Whitelisting

Ditto Runner Node (DRN) is a backend service that indexes registered and executed workflows, stores them in a local database, retrieves workflow metadata from IPFS, and simulates active workflows.

Before running the node, each operator has to be whitelisted. Please join the Telegram group and provide your simulator and operator addresses in the following google form.

• Simulator address: It should be retrieved from Consensus key from step 2.

• Operator address: This is the address that holds the delegated stake on Symbiotic/EigenLayer.

This step is necessary to enable operations and reporting. Failure to complete this step will prevent the node from functioning properly in the live environment.

4. Running the DRN
