Guild Operators' Repository

A place for SPOs to contribute together to the Cardano Ecosystem.

Documentation / Guides

• Stake Pool Operator site contains instructions for using various guild tools which simplify various stake-ops (setting up, managing and monitoring pools) for pool operators. Note that the guides are present to help you simplify your tasks - but as an entity responsible for creating blocks on a financial platform, we expect the pre-requisite skillsets before entering the portal:

  • Learn about working with architecture, setup and essentials (sysops);
  • Understand how to secure your server (secops);
  • Be comfortable with working with cardano-cli , and have worked on preview/preprod/guild networks for pool operations without use of wrapper scripts - as an education exercise;
  • Read the documentation and disclaimers. The guide and tools only aim to simplify your tasks, it will not try to do everything for you - neither scope best practices.
  • We recommend anyone using these instructions to use offline workflow, and NEVER have their wallet keys and pool keys to be made available to online servers, as supported by the tools.

• Community Support FAQ & how-to guides for use within Cardano ecosystem. This documentation/FAQ contains topics such as Cardano wallets, blockchain explorers, and selecting a pool for delegation to name a few.

• Concepts is place holder where we can accumulate educative articles explaining basic essentials of blockchain.
