Node Studio Program #1

Node Studio is a training and onboarding program designed to help new validators start validating on the NEAR network in an easy, secure, and cost-effective way.

The core of the program is the Node Studio platform, which allows users to create and configure a NEAR validator without requiring advanced technical skills. The software automates the entire setup process — from deployment to configuration — while giving the user full control over their VPS (Virtual Private Server) and private keys.

One of Node Studio’s key features is that it provides a low-cost solution for becoming a validator, removing the technical and financial barriers that typically prevent new participants from joining the network.

The program’s mission is to democratize NEAR validation, providing a practical path for individuals and small teams to operate real nodes, gain hands-on experience, and contribute directly to the security and decentralization of the NEAR Protocol.
