  1. Circuit Nodes 101

Power your Circuit Node

Operating a Circuit Node within the GR1D network requires specific hardware to ensure optimal performance and reliability. Here's a breakdown of the current minimum requirements for running the Circuit Node Client software:

Supported Operating Systems:

  • Windows Desktop

  • macOS

  • Linux (64-bit)

Minimum Hardware Requirements:

  • RAM: 4 GB

  • CPU: 2 x86/x64 Cores

  • Disk Space: 20 GB

  • Processor: x86/x64 compatible (ARM processors like Apple M1/M2 are also supported)

  • Internet Connection: Stable connection with sufficient bandwidth

Scaling for Multiple Circuit License Chips:

While these specifications are suitable for running a node with up to 100 Circuit License Chips, it's important to understand that resource requirements increase proportionally with the number of Chips you manage.

  • You can efficiently run multiple Chips on a single machine, potentially dozens or even more, thanks to the system's scalability.

  • However, as you add more Chips to a single node, ensure your hardware can handle the increased processing and bandwidth demands.

Important Notes:

  • These requirements are subject to change as the GR1D network evolves and new features are introduced. Stay updated on the latest recommendations to ensure continued optimal performance.

  • Regularly monitor your node's resource usage to identify any potential bottlenecks and adjust your hardware accordingly.

By adhering to these guidelines, you can contribute effectively to the GR1D network's security and stability while maximizing your rewards as a Circuit Node operator.
