Node Types & Operator Roles

Operators run Arc402-compatible nodes, which provide the following key functions:

1. Computation: Nodes perform AI tasks, analyze data, and run algorithms for the network.

2. Data Relays: Nodes share and synchronize information across the cognitive mesh.

3. Intelligence Proofs: Each node submits verifiable proofs of its contributions to the network.

Each node contributes to the collective cognition of Arc402, helping the system make distributed, data-driven decisions. Nodes are rewarded for verified contributions, ensuring participation and network growth.

// Node performs AI computation
const nodeResult = Node.runAI(inputData);

// Node submits proof of its work to the network
const proof = Node.generateProof(nodeResult);

// Submit proof to the network for verification
Network.verifyProof(proof).then(isValid => {
    if (isValid) {
        // Node earns rewards for verified contribution
        Node.reward(100); // Example: reward points or tokens
    } else {
        console.log("Proof invalid, no reward granted");
    }
});
