Simplifying Staking: Announcing the Stratis Launcher Beta

Written by
Iain McCain
Published on
July 3, 2024

Stratis is thrilled to announce the beta release of its new simplified staking solution. Since the launch of Stratis’s EVM-based blockchain, they have utilized the standard validator setup offered by Ethereum's launchpad; it is acknowledged that the process can be daunting for non-technical users. The goal at Stratis was to make staking accessible to everyone, and with the introduction of the Stratis Launcher (Stereum Node Launcher) and Wagyu Keygen GUI, Stratis is taking a significant step towards achieving that.

Making Staking Accessible

Staking is a vital part of maintaining and securing the Stratis blockchain network. By participating in staking, validators help validate transactions and contribute to the decentralization of the network. However, the traditional validator setup process can be complex and intimidating, requiring technical knowledge and experience.To address this, Stratis has integrated two tools into its staking solution: the Stratis Launcher and the Wagyu Keygen GUI. These tools are designed to streamline the staking process, making it more user-friendly and accessible to everyone, regardless of their technical background.

Simplifying the Launchpad

The launchpad can be intimidating for those new to the blockchain space; Stratis has made significant changes to ease newcomers by simplifying the process and providing clear instructions for those unfamiliar with blockchain concepts and staking in general.

Introducing the Stratis Launcher

The Stratis Launcher simplifies the process of setting up and managing a validator node. With its intuitive interface, users can easily deploy and configure their validator nodes without needing to understand the intricacies of node management. The Stratis Launcher handles all the technical details, allowing users to focus on what matters most – participating in staking and earning rewards.Key features of the Stratis Launcher include:

  • One-Click Deployment: Set up a validator node with a few clicks.
  • Automated Updates: Keep the node updated with the latest software and security patches.
  • User-Friendly Interface: Manage the node with an intuitive and easy-to-navigate interface.
  • Consistency: Deployment remains consistent through the use of Docker containers.

Simplified Key Management with Wagyu Keygen GUI

Key management is another critical aspect of staking that can be challenging for non-technical users. The Wagyu Keygen GUI addresses this by providing a straightforward and secure way to generate and manage validator keys. With the Wagyu Keygen GUI, users can create their validator keys with ease and confidence, ensuring that their assets remain secure.Key features of the Wagyu Keygen GUI include:

  • Secure Key Generation: Generate staking keys with industry-standard security practices.
  • Easy Backup and Recovery: Safeguard keys with simple backup and recovery options.
  • Intuitive Design: Navigate the key generation process with a clear and user-friendly interface.

Enhancing Decentralization

By simplifying the staking process, Stratis aims to increase participation and contribute to the overall decentralization of the blockchain. More participants mean a more secure and resilient network, and Stratis believes that the new staking solution will encourage more users to get involved.

Join the Beta

Stratis invites users to join the beta program and experience the new simplified staking solution. Feedback will be invaluable in helping refine and improve the process. Together, staking can be accessible to everyone, furthering the network's decentralization.To get started, you can review the resources below:

  • Auroria (Testnet) Faucet: https://auroria.faucet.stratisevm.com

  • Stratis Launcher Release: https://github.com/stratisproject/stratis-node/releases
