💻 Dev Blog
1. Alphanet Verifier: New Client App & CLI for Node Operators
On June 28th, we unveiled the CARV Alphanet, empowering node operators to test our network. This initiative plays a vital role in safeguarding against system manipulation and bolstering overall security through a two-stage smart contract verification process.
By July 1st, we released the CARV Alphanet verifier client app, enabling you to launch your nodes using VPS, CLI, or our desktop application. We understand that running nodes on personal laptops may not be feasible for everyone. As such, we offer alternative options: you can choose to delegate your node operation or utilize one of CARV's trusted Node Operations Services partners.
