- Operators are paid gas plus a small margin by the automation's owner, set on chain and capped per run and per week.
- Paid only when a step succeeds. Lose a race and you pay the reverted gas.
- New automations accept verified operators only. Fees can be zero for long stretches. Not an investment; no token involved.
What you need
- Always-on machine: small VPS, Node 24 or Docker.
- Fresh key from init. Never leaves the machine.
- 0.01 HYPE bond, refundable: exit, wait 7 days, withdraw.
- A little HYPE for gas.
- RPC endpoint. The public one works.
- Outbound HTTPS for heartbeats (optional; no uptime without).
Bond and exit
- 0.01 HYPE locked in the registry. No slashing.
- Exit stops runs at once; the bond unlocks after 7 days.
- Jailing only stops runs. The bond stays yours.
