About Public Node Membership

I’m a member, now what?

It kind of depends on you. We have stealth members that prefer to remain anonymous and we have members that choose to be very active in the Public Node community. We welcome both approaches and everything in between.

Join us on Discord

We organize almost everything through Discord, so joining is undoubtedly the best way to get connected. Drop on in and say hello!

Vote on proposed protocal changes

An important part of Public Node membership is each member’s opportunity to vote on proposed changes to the blockchain protocols Public Node supports. If you would like to vote, input your wallet voting address on the Member Profile page.

Receive a physical thank you gift*

Public Node sometimes has a physical thank you gift available to send to its members. If you would like to receive such a gift when eligible and available, please provide your mailing address on the Member Profile page.

*A gift is not guaranteed and we do not ship to some locations.

Tax-deductible membership fees

Public Node is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit charity organization, which means your membership fees are considered tax-deductible charitable contributions in the United States (IRS determination letter in PDF).
