Validators are responsible for securing the Axone network. Validator responsibilities include maintaining a functional [node](https://docs.axone.xyz/docs/nodes/run-node) with constant uptime and providing a sufficient amount of $AXONE as stake. In exchange for this service, validators receive block rewards and transaction fees!
