The Joining the network page is missing some crucial points, and leaves the reader with some questions regarding the whole process. Issue with this page are listed here:
Missing points
[ ] Technical Specifications: we don't mention any hardware or software requirements for running a validator. Details like minimum RAM, CPU cores, storage space, and specific OSes.
[ ] Staking Requirements: we mention "enough stake" as a selection criterion but don't specify the minimum amount required. It's unclear if staking involves locking tokens for a specific period.
[ ] Selection Process: we talk about nodes being "selected" to be a validator, but the page lacks details on the selection process itself. How often does this selection happen? Is it random, or are there specific criteria used?
[ ] Rewards and Responsibilities: There's no information on potential rewards for validators or their expected responsibilities beyond relaying and potentially signing transactions.
[ ] Monitoring and Maintenance: The content lacks guidance on monitoring validator performance, software updates, and potential downtime penalties.
[ ] Security Best Practices: We don't mention any security best practices for running a validator node, such as key management, network security, and system hardening.
