📚 How to Run a Relay Node

🌐

NEW in V4: Managed Hub Mode

No port forwarding or static IP required!

Connect your node to hub.mumblechat.com and let the hub handle public connectivity. Perfect for home users behind NAT routers!

✅ Managed Mode

Node → Hub → Users (10% hub fee)

💰 Self-Hosted Mode

Node ↔ Users directly (100% rewards)

What is a Relay Node?

A relay node helps store and forward encrypted messages in the MumbleChat network. When users are offline, their messages are stored on relay nodes and delivered when they come back online. You earn MCT tokens for providing this service!

🖥️ Multi-Node Support (V4 New!)

Run multiple nodes on the same machine with different wallets. System auto-detects resources and calculates max nodes: min(CPU×2, RAM/256MB, Disk/1GB, 10)

Requirements

  • MetaMask or compatible Web3 wallet
  • MCT tokens for staking: 100 MCT (Bronze), 500 MCT (Silver), 1,000 MCT (Gold), or 5,000 MCT (Platinum)
  • Stable internet connection
  • For desktop: Node.js 18+ (auto-installed)

Browser vs Desktop

🌐 Browser Node

  • Instant start, no install
  • Runs while tab is open
  • Lower rewards (1x)
  • Good for testing

💻 Desktop Node ⭐

  • Runs 24/7 in background
  • Auto-starts with computer
  • 5-10x more rewards
  • Supports managed hub mode

V4 Reward Tiers (Stake-Based)

📊 Daily Pool: 100 MCT Maximum

The pool is distributed at midnight UTC to all active relay nodes based on relays × tier multiplier. Hub users receive 90% (10% hub fee), self-hosted receive 100%.

  • 🥉 Bronze: 1-4 GB storage, 100 MCT stake - 1.0x multiplier
  • 🥈 Silver: 4-10 GB storage, 500 MCT stake - 1.5x multiplier
  • 🥇 Gold: 10-50 GB storage, 1,000 MCT stake - 2.0x multiplier
  • 💎 Platinum: 50-100 GB storage, 5,000 MCT stake - 3.0x multiplier

💡 V4 Change: Tiers are now stake-based instead of uptime-based. Higher stake = higher tier!

💡 Pro Tip: Use managed mode (hub.mumblechat.com) if you're behind NAT. Use self-hosted mode if you have a public IP to keep 100% of rewards!
