Nodes

For information about DFK Chain updates, follow @dfkchain on Twitter.

Running a Mainnet Node

The basic instructions for setting up a DFK Chain mainnet node can by found in the Avalanche Subnet Docs at: https://docs.avax.network/nodes/run/subnet-node

The AvaLabs subnet-evm repository is located at: https://github.com/ava-labs/subnet-evm.

Subnet Upgrades

The DFK Chain upgrade settings are located at: https://github.com/ava-labs/public-chain-assets/blob/main/chains/53935/upgrade.json.

If you are using default directories, add the upgrade.json file to: :$HOME/.avalanchego/configs/chains/q2aTwKuyzgs8pynF7UXBZCU7DejbZbZ6EUyHr3JQzYgwNPUPi.

Otherwise, for details on adding the file to your node's configuration settings, see: https://docs.avax.network/subnets/customize-a-subnet#network-upgrades-enabledisable-precompiles.

Previous Upgrades

Date	Timestamp	Description
3/17/2023	1679072400	State upgrade to increase CRYSTAL Hard Cap and Manual Mint Limit
9/22/2022	1662134400	Add FeeManagerConfig precompile

State Sync

Node operators who are only interested in current state of DFK Chain (i.e. not an archive node) can turn on State Sync for both DFK Chain and C-Chain, allowing your node to sync much faster.

To turn on State Sync, add the following to your config.json files, which by default are located in:

• C-Chain: {chain-config-dir}/C/config.json

• DFK Chain: {chain-config-dir}/q2aTwKuyzgs8pynF7UXBZCU7DejbZbZ6EUyHr3JQzYgwNPUPi/config.json

{
  "state-sync-enabled": true
}

Additional instructions can be found at: https://docs.avax.network/nodes/maintain/chain-config-flags#state-sync.

Node Snapshots

Snapshots for DFK Chain Mainnet State Sync and Archival Nodes can be downloaded from the following Torrent files:

Node Type	Size	Date	Torrent Link
State Sync	300 GB	June 2024	dfk-mainnet-state-sync-snapshot-2024-06.tar.gz.torrent
Archival	5.2 TB	May 2024	dfk-mainnet-archival-snapshot-2024-05.tar.torrent

Validators

Information about DFK Chain validators and an application to become a validator can be found at: https://validators.dfkchain.com/.

Gas Fee Distribution

Gas fees are collected by the Validator Fund smart contract and then distributed as follows:

• 50% - Burned

• 25% - Held in the Validator Fund and designated for the chain validators

• 25% - Held in the Reward Fund and designated to the Quest Fund
