# Run Node

### **How do I run nodes?**

Running a node is very straightforward and requires no complex steps; anyone can do it without any technical background.

You can operate nodes by visiting the node dashboard. Specific instructions could be checked [here](notion://www.notion.so/o/IvNXdf7Zv8fMA4jkhJ71/s/lCERrLGkwTm4gevWC6XT/~/changes/35/node-purchase-and-operation/run-and-delegate-hyperfuse-guardian-nodes/run-nodes).

### **Can I delegate Node NFTs?**

Yes, delegation of Node NFTs is supported. Specific instructions could be checked [here](notion://www.notion.so/o/IvNXdf7Zv8fMA4jkhJ71/s/lCERrLGkwTm4gevWC6XT/~/changes/35/node-purchase-and-operation/run-and-delegate-hyperfuse-guardian-nodes/delegate-node-nfts).

### **What time does the Node Rewards settlement start every day?**

The rewards for the previous day are settled at UTC 0:00 every day.

### **What are the daily rewards distribution rules?**

You can click [here](/rewards-and-contributions/rewards-for-hyperfuse-guardian-node-participants/node-operation-rewards.md) to view the detailed distribution rules.

### **What form are the rewards distributed in?**

The rewards are distributed in the form of $veSonic, which is deployed on Solana Mainnet.

### **Do I need gas to claim the rewards?**

Yes, to ensure the security of the rewards, you need to manually claim them. This process occurs on-chain, so you will need sufficient SOL balance in your wallet on Solana Mainnet to complete the claim.

### Is there anything I need to be aware of?

Ensure the stability of your Node Validators (addresses) network to increase the chances of your Node NFTs being selected for each round of validation. If the Node Validators (addresses) are inactive, the delegated Node NFTs will also be unable to participate in validation.
