The Guardian Node License

The Guardian Node License is the exclusive gateway to becoming an active operator in the Mawari Network. It authorizes individuals and organizations to run Guardian Nodes, which are essential for maintaining the integrity, performance, and transparency of the network. Only licensed operators are eligible to receive rewards for their contributions, making the license a crucial asset for those who wish to participate in the decentralized infrastructure that powers high-fidelity spatial streaming and immersive content delivery.

To ensure fairness and long-term alignment with the network’s goals, each Guardian Node License is non-transferable for the first year(12months) from its minting date. This lock-up period is designed to discourage short-term speculation and promote genuine commitment to the operational stability and bootstrapping of the network. By focusing on long-term operators, the Mawari Network ensures a solid foundation for growth and performance consistency during its most critical early phases.

Guardian Node Licenses are structured in three plans: Plan 1: Visionary Plan 2: Balance Plan 3: Catalyst Each offering a distinct reward for participation in the network activity program. During the initial three-year early operator incentive period, each plan receives different token reward allocations based on their level of contribution and commitment. As the network scales and demand for decentralized rendering and validation increases, these plans will also determine how frequently nodes are selected for jobs within the network activity distribution system, creating additional differentiation and incentives.

During the bootstrapping phase, all licensed Guardian Nodes are required to meet a minimum operational threshold of 8 distributed availability verification cycles (“heartbeat tasks”) per 24-hour period to qualify for daily rewards. These tasks are scheduled at various intervals to validate continuous availability and should not be interpreted as allowing limited-time operation (e.g., only 8 hours online). Nodes are expected to maintain consistent uptime throughout the day. This threshold is an initial baseline and will increase as network demand grows. This ensures that the network has enough consistent participation to validate and monitor streaming jobs at scale. The performance of each node is continuously tracked and validated through on-chain signals and telemetry, reinforcing trust in the ecosystem and enabling precise, transparent distribution of rewards.
