Authorization of Other Validators
Becoming a Validator on Parex Network: Earning Community Trust
Becoming a validator on the Parex Network requires more than just technical proficiency—it's about earning the approval of other validators. This process serves as a testament to one's credibility and respect within the community. Once selected, validators carry the responsibility of ensuring network security and contributing to its governance. It's an opportunity for individuals to demonstrate their dedication to blockchain technology and their commitment to the long-term success of the network.
The protocol defines a voting mechanism to dynamically add new signers and remove existing ones. In Geth this can be controlled via the clique.propose(address, authorized) method (clique_propose for remote RPC calls).
To authorize a new signer, existing ones can propose it via clique.propose("0x...", true). When more than half the signers proposed it, the authorization comes into effect immediately and the new account can start signing blocks.
Similarly, existing signers can propose deauthorizing existing ones via clique.propose("0x...", false). Again if half + 1 signers deauthorize a signer, it is immediately removed from the list and blocks minted by it are rejected from that point onward.
