Wave 0 Validator zNode Sale Guide

This is a quick, step-by-step guide on participating in Wave 0 of the Validator zNodes sale.

Exclusive Access to GoldPass and SilverPass holders

During Wave 0 GoldPass and SilverPass owners will have the exclusive opportunity to participate in Wave 0 of the zNode Sale. Participants will have some extra perks such as:

  • Guaranteed Tier 1 allocation (GoldPass holders only)

  • Access to Tier 1 and Tier 2 FCFS

  • Higher Allocation per Wallet

GoldPass

Each GoldPass grants access to Wave 0 of the Rivalz Validator zNodes on September 10th. A total of 9,000 GoldPass SBTs will be distributed through internal campaigns and KOL partnerships.

GoldPass holders are guaranteed the right to buy a Validator zNode Key License at the Tier 1 price during the sale, ensuring a stress-free, affordable opportunity.

Additionally, each GoldPass holder can gift up to 10 SilverPasses, giving others access to Wave 0. If the SilverPass recipient was not previously referred, the GoldPass owner's referral code will be automatically applied.

During Wave 0 GoldPass holders will have a 2 times higher maximum allocation compared to SilverPass holders.

SilverPass

SilverPass holders get access to a limited supply of Tier 1 and 2 zNodes during Wave 0 on a first-come, first-served basis. GoldPass owners can whitelist up to 10 wallets and gift them a SilverPass, earning a 10% commission from zNode sales if the recipient wasn’t previously whitelisted.

Unlike GoldPass, SilverPass doesn’t guarantee zNode access due to limited supply, so early participation increases chances.

If you don’t have a SilverPass, visit the #Get-Silverpass channel on Rivalz Discord, where GoldPass owners can gift you one.

Purchase Limits per wallet during Wave 0

As Nodes get purchased from the FCFS pools, max allocation per wallet will go down. For example, If the sale starts with 20 nodes for GoldPass holders and 10 for SilverPass holders, the maximum purchase amount per wallet decreases as nodes are sold. Once 50% of the nodes are sold, the maximum amount per wallet is cut in half. The final maximum allocation per wallet will depend on the total amount left in each tier.
