If you are interested in becoming a NodeDAO trusted operator, you can follow the onboarding process outlined on the NodeDAO webpage. To summarize, you must first become a node operator by the NodeDAO protocol and meet the required deposit. Then, you can call the contract's registerOperator method to submit the deposit and obtain approval from the DAO to become a trusted node operator. If you are registered as a validator, you can run the validation process once 32 Ether is accumulated.
To join the trusted operator set, you need to contact the NodeDAO team and go through a KYC process or submit a forum post to be onboarded in the trusted operator set. After the addition of the controller-address, you will be able to interact with all NodeDAO’s contracts made for node operators. Finally, the DAO votes for including you to the list of trusted operators. Once you have been successfully voted in, you will become a NodeDAO trusted operator.
