Overview
The QoreChain Light Node is a lightweight client that follows the QoreChain network without running a full validator or archive node. Instead of replaying every transaction, it verifies block headers cryptographically, tracks delegations and rewards, and streams live network telemetry — all from a small, self-contained binary.
SX Edition
The SX (Server eXperience) edition is the headless light node: a daemon plus a full management CLI, built for servers and automation. The binary is lightnode-sx. This is the light node's v3.1.1 line (its own version, separate from the chain version).
UX Edition
The UX (User eXperience) edition runs the same light node daemon as the SX edition, but adds an embedded web dashboard so you can watch the node and the network in a browser. The binary is lightnode-ux. Like the SX edition, this is the light node's v3.1.1 line (its own version, separate from the chain version).
Registration & Licensing
To earn the 3% light-node reward share, a light node must be registered on-chain and must keep proving that it is alive. This page covers how registration works, how the node proves liveness, and how to register and license a node through the Dashboard.
Rewards & Monitoring
A light node both earns rewards and needs to stay healthy to keep earning them. This page covers the 3% light-node reward share, how delegated staking and auto-compounding work, and how to monitor the node.
