Choose the interface that matches your task. Using Tavchain from a wallet or application does not require running a node.

Full nodes and validators

An unregistered full node normally has zero consensus voting power. It can verify history and answer local queries without a staking deposit or wallet keyring. A funded account and a network ID do not automatically provide consensus power. The native staking module supports validator registration and delegation, with up to 10 active validators selected by bonded stake. See staking and governance. Never copy a running validator’s consensus key or signer state into another node. The public installation guides create a separate non-validator identity and home.

Public and local interfaces

Use the public EVM HTTP endpoint for applications. The packaged full-node profile binds its own listeners to loopback. Debug tracing and public WebSocket access are not offered as public services. An RPC error or explorer delay is not, by itself, proof that consensus has stopped. Check Troubleshooting or node monitoring. Connect a wallet · Install a full node
