What’s Spiderman’s favorite jewelry? The Spiderchain!

New Orchestrators stake collateral and run a full node. Once integrated, they earn BTC rewards. Potential Orchestrators can send their request to join a designated block Orchestrator.

A new multisig is created, parallel to a Bitcoin block, requiring a stake transfer. After six Bitcoin confirmations, they become Orchestrators.
2
1,605
1,742
14,427
Erratic node behavior isn't taken lightly. Orchestrators may have their stakes slashed for inactivity, incorrect block proposals, wrong multi-sig signing, or failing to validate correctly. Staying active is key to Spiderchain's integrity.
2
1,604
1,731
15,920
The exit process is straightforward and consists of three steps:
1. An Orchestrator signals the desire to exit.
2. Orchestrator's multisigs are replaced by new Orchestrators.
3. When multisigs are replaced, the original stake is returned to the Orchestrators.
