Download and run the official Parallax node software. Help secure the network and participate in consensus.
It is these users who keep Parallax decentralized. They individually run their own Parallax full nodes, and each of those full nodes separately follows the exact same rules to decide which block chain is valid.
There's no voting or other corruptible process involved: there's just individual software following identical rules—"math"—to evaluate identical blocks and coming to identical conclusions about which block chain is valid.
This shared agreement (called consensus) allows people like you to only accept valid transactions, enforcing Parallax's rules against even the most powerful miners.
Two ways to run a Parallax full node — pick whichever fits how you work. Both connect to the same network.
A graphical interface for running a full node. The easiest way to participate — install, launch, and watch the chain sync. No terminal required.
The terminal binary for developers, miners, and operators running headless servers. Configurable, scriptable, and ideal for automation.
