Points
What earns points, when a day's points are confirmed, and where to see them.
What earns points
- Your node earns points for the hours it is online and reachable, and for the measurements it completes that the network accepts.
- Residential, mobile and datacenter nodes all earn points. A home or mobile connection earns more than a datacenter one, because that point of view is harder to come by.
- Nodes behind the same public address are counted together, so more machines on one connection do not add more points.
When points are confirmed
Points are counted for finished UTC days. A finished day first appears as Pending and moves to Settled after a review period. A new node is checked before its points count, so its first days stay pending a little longer.
Where to see them
The operator dashboard shows Today (the hours each node has been online), Pending and Settled totals across your nodes.
