Be the Network

Decentralization and activity is key to Radiant's success. Your participation, whether running a node or simply holding RXD, contributes to a more distributed and resilient network.

Mine RXD

Radiant was specifically designed to transition from GPU mining to ASIC mining for enhanced scalability and efficiency. The Radiant Network began with only GPU and FPGA miners available to mine with Proof of Work to earn RXD coins.

Radiant now has ASIC miners publically available on the market as of September 5th 2024. The first manufacturer to announce a Radiant compatible SHA512/256d ASIC miner was DragonBall Miner, with the A11 Dual ASIC Miner.

ICERIVER was the second manufacturer to release an ASIC miner for Radiant, with the ICERIVER RXD RX0.

Grow the Userbase

The more holders and users Radiant has, the stronger the network becomes. Your participation helps create a network effect, attracting more users and developers to the ecosystem.

Run a Node

Nodes are the backbone of the Radiant Network, ensuring its security, speed, and decentralization. By running a node, you become an integral part of Radiant's infrastructure. Consider running a Radiant Node and a public ElectrumX Server. Also learn more about the Radiant System Design and Radiant Node Types:

Note: All nodes are full nodes until a future update is released, which will add Archive and Agent types to the network (only around 11GB for full nodes currently)

Mining Node

Beyond just mining, running a full Mining Node helps validate transactions and maintain the integrity of the blockchain.

Agent Node

These nodes will process and relay transactions, forming a nervous system of the Radiant Network. Running an agent node will help improve user experienced network speed and reliability.

Archive Node

By storing the full blockchain history, archive nodes will play a crucial role in maintaining the network's long-term integrity and providing data for analysis and re-propagation.
