Participant

A Participant is a node in the Diva network that seeks to join new validators. This node:

  • Listens to validator seeds emitted by the smart contract and communicates with the Coordinator to request participation in each DKG with a specific number of lottery tickets, depending on its available collateral.
  • If one of its lottery tickets is chosen, the node begins by sending its contribution to the DKG and verifying the contributions of other participants.
  • Once the process is complete, it signs the result with its SECP256k1 private key, enabling the smart contract to verify its participation in the process.
