# Validator Rewards

On MeMusic's native blockchain, Station Nodes play a crucial role in validating the blockchain. There will be two types of validators on the blockchain (primary and secondary validators).&#x20;

**Primary Validator**

* In the initial phase of the blockchain's launch, there will be primary validators ranging between 21 and 32. These validators are to receive&#x20;
* Primary Validators are required to provide computing power for the blockchain. A high-end computing device with a minimum of 32GB RAM and 1TB HDD will be required.&#x20;
* After meeting the hardware requirements, primary validators are selected based on the number of Station Nodes held. The more nodes a validator hold, they will have a higher priority of being selected as a primary validator.&#x20;

**Secondary Validator**&#x20;

* Secondary Validators are to share the network rewards. Any Station Node Holder can be a secondary validator by staking $MMT and delegating its voting power to a primary validator.&#x20;
