KIP

KIP provides data and payment rails to connect owners of AI assets – models, apps and datasets – letting them compete and collaborate freely within a decentralized ecosystem.

As in any decentralized system, KIP’s goal is trustless coordination: requiring legions of indexers, validators, checkers, voters, bundlers, and RPC providers. From the validators who update the underlying chain, to the indexers who make on-chain data available for query, to the voters who exercise governance powers.

Checker Nodes within KIP Protocol's system play a role in both the operations and the governance of the system as a whole and are rewarded in $KIP.

Prerequisites

  • EVM-compatible wallet
  • Sufficient funds or credits for your Node subscription

Click “Connect Wallet” to link the wallet containing your Checker Node NFT. After connecting, click “Fetch NFT” to allow the console to automatically detect the NFTs in your wallet.

Step 4: Choose Your Subscription Duration

Select your desired subscription duration. Longer subscriptions reduce your monthly cost. You can also apply a discount code if available. Once finalized, click “Continue to Pay” to proceed.

Step 5: Complete Payment

You will be redirected to the payment partner CopperX. Finalize your payment using your preferred blockchain.

Step 6: Initiate Node Delegation

After payment, you’ll be redirected to Nodefolio. Locate the newly deployed Node, which will show an “Action Required” status. Click “Click to Delegate” to start the delegation process.

Step 7: Complete the Delegation Process

A pop-up window will appear. Select the licenses to which you want to delegate your Node, click “Delegate,” and sign the transaction. Ensure you have sufficient ETH in your wallet to cover gas fees.

Step 8: Confirm and Verify

Your KIP Checker Node is now fully deployed. Return to Nodefolio to confirm the status of your Node. The status will change from “Click to Delegate” to “Running,” indicating successful setup.

You're now ready to start earning rewards with your KIP Checker Node!
