The Guardians play a key role in the protocol's governance process by delegating this responsibility (via voting) to the Block Producers. In Remme Protocol, there are specific criteria that need to be met by an account to get the Guardian status and participate in stake reward distribution:
- An account needs to stake a minimum 250k REM
- Tokens are locked for the first six months (you cannot change your mind once you stake)
- The power of the vote is built up gradually to 100% over six months on a weekly basis. Note: Guardian earns full and liquid rewards from the start
In order to maintain the Guardian status, each account will have to re-assert their vote every month. With those that do not keep their votes up to date for more than a month:
- Account stops getting stake rewards
- The influence of last recorded vote decays by half every year
Guardians do not need to operate a full node. Staking, voting and claiming rewards can be done via the explorer website.
