Delegation

Delegating your node to a Node-as-a-Service (NaaS) provider is the easiest and most convenient way to participate in the YOM network and earn passive income. With delegation, you don't need to worry about technical complexities such as setup, monitoring, and maintenance. Instead, a trusted NaaS provider takes care of everything while you enjoy consistent earnings from your node.

Why Choose Delegation?

Delegating your node provides several advantages, making it the perfect choice for users who prefer a hands-off approach.

Key Benefits of Delegation:

1. Ease of Use: No technical knowledge required—just delegate and start earning.

2. Hassle-Free Scaling: Easily expand by purchasing and delegating additional node licenses without worrying about hardware capacity.

3. Fully Managed Service: A Node-as-a-Service (NaaS) provider takes care of setup, monitoring, and maintenance.

4. Predictable Earnings: Enjoy stable, passive income without the need for active involvement.

5. Lower Risk Exposure: No hardware investments or operational risks associated with self-hosting.

Step 1: Acquire a Node

Before you can delegate your node, you need to acquire one. Owning a node grants you access to the YOM network and allows you to delegate your node to a NaaS provider.

How to Purchase a Node License:

1. Visit the YOM Marketplace:

   • Purchase a node license (NFT) via YOM’s trusted partners.

   • Ensure that the seller is a verified YOM partner to avoid fraudulent transactions.

2. Store Your License Securely:

   • Once purchased, transfer the Node NFT to your Web3 wallet (e.g., MetaMask).

   • Ensure you back up your wallet's recovery phrase securely.

Step 2: Delegating Your Node

After obtaining your Node License, follow these steps to delegate your node to a NaaS provider and start earning:

1. Access the YOM Dashboard:

   • Navigate to app.yom.ooo and connect your Web3 wallet that holds the Node NFT.

2. Navigate to the Node Management Section:

   • In the dashboard, find the "Node Management" tab.

   • Select the node license you wish to delegate.

3. Choose a NaaS Provider:

   • Browse through the list of available Node-as-a-Service providers.

   • Evaluate providers based on their uptime guarantees, historical performance, and service fees.

4. Confirm Delegation:

   • Click the “Delegate” button and confirm the transaction in your Web3 wallet.

   • Once confirmed, your node will be handed over to the NaaS provider for management.

Step 3: Monitoring Your Delegated Node

Once your node is successfully delegated, you can monitor its performance through the YOM dashboard. The dashboard provides valuable insights, including:

• Earnings Overview: Track your daily, weekly, and monthly rewards based on workload allocations.

• Performance Metrics: See how well your node is performing in terms of uptime and resource allocation.

• Leaderboard Ranking: Monitor your rank and reputation in the network based on $YRX accumulation and performance.

Step 4: Earnings and Payouts

With delegation, you can expect monthly earnings within an estimated range of:

• $32 to $121 per month per node, depending on network activity and workload saturation.

Important Considerations:

• Earnings vary based on:

  • The overall demand for cloud gaming sessions.

  • Regional network saturation and available workload.

  • Your accumulated $YRX score, which influences workload priority.

• Payouts are processed automatically at the end of each earning period and distributed directly to your Web3 wallet.

Step 5: Expanding Your Delegation Portfolio

Once you are comfortable with delegation, you can increase your earning potential by acquiring and delegating additional nodes. This allows you to benefit from multiple revenue streams with minimal effort.

To scale up your earnings:

1. Purchase additional node licenses from the YOM marketplace.

2. Follow the same delegation process via the dashboard.

3. Monitor multiple nodes and optimize your delegation strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Can I switch to self-hosting later if I change my mind? Yes, you can revoke delegation at any time and transition to self-hosting if you prefer a more hands-on approach.

2. What happens if my NaaS provider underperforms? If your provider fails to meet uptime and performance standards, you can re-delegate your node to another provider via the YOM dashboard.

3. Are there any fees associated with delegation? NaaS providers may charge a small service fee, which is deducted from your monthly earnings. Be sure to check provider details before delegation.

4. How secure is the delegation process? The delegation process is secured through blockchain smart contracts, ensuring transparency and immutability. Your Node NFT remains safely stored in your wallet.
