If you run validator nodes or infrastructure services and want to secure multiple AVSs through MilkyWay.
Set Up a MilkyWay Node and Register
Install the MilkyWay L1 software, built on the Cosmos SDK.
Configure your node to meet minimum hardware and uptime standards.
Follow the Operator guides.
Opt In to AVSs
Browse the AVS marketplace on the MilkyWay dApp.
Each AVS has unique slashing rules, reward schedules, and operator requirements.
Maintain Uptime
Ensure stable server infrastructure to avoid slashing.
Monitor logs & performance metrics (e.g., via Prometheus, Grafana).
Earn Rewards
Collect fees from each AVS you support, plus any base staking rewards if you’re also a validator on Celestia or Initia.
