Warning multiple node setups

Warning - Multiple Node Setups

Never use the same seed on multiple running nano node instances at the same time.

  • Multiple nano nodes using the same seed can result in network race conditions that degrade performance for your personal accounts.
  • In addition, publishing transactions from two nodes with the same account at the same time may cause an account fork which requires a slower representative voting process.
  • Similarly, if you are running a representative account on multiple nodes, they may publish conflicting votes, causing your representative to be ignored by the network.
  • Performance degradation in enterprise environments may be significant.
