Verifier Node Tiers

Verifier Nodes in the OpenCompute network are classified into five tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, and Master. Each tier requires a different minimum stake of esNEB and offers a corresponding Verifier Boost multiplier.

The Verifier Boost determines how much additional weight delegators receive when staking to a Verifier Node. For example, delegating to a Diamond-tier Verifier doubles the effective weight of the staked esNEB (2×), giving delegators greater influence in both reward distribution and ranking outcomes.

Tier Structure

This tiered model incentivizes Verifier Nodes to commit higher stakes, while offering delegators stronger reward multipliers and governance influence when supporting higher-ranked Verifiers.

Tier	Required Stake (esNEB)	Verifier Boost
Bronze	100,000	1.0×
Silver	200,000	1.2×
Gold	500,000	1.5×
Diamond	1,000,000	2.0×
Master	5,000,000	3.0×
