# Application for participation in PoA mainnet

In order to participate in the **PoA mainnet**, you need to provide information about yourself according to the [form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1v2xEqHwBdjdmXgKrN7M-kwRC5dMJpHfBFSgV3L4eCrQ/viewform?edit_requested=true).

Participants who meet the following criteria will be allowed into the **PoA mainnet**:

1. **The validator successfully passed the PoA testnet phase.** Successful completion of the PoA test phase will be determined by the EYWA technical team according to the following criteria: rating in EYWA explorer, validator rank on the results of the quests, data provided by the project and engagement. 
2. **The validator meets requirements for nodes in the PoA mainnet.** Technical requirements for the **PoA mainnet** participants can be found in [**Requirements for PoA mainnet validators**](/eywa-oracle-network-will-be-ended-in-april-2024/incentivised-poa-mainnet/requirements-for-poa-mainnet-validators.md) section.

After passing the screening and receiving confirmation, tokens (**EYWA-PoA** ) will be sent to the address you specified, which can be used to register a node in governance smart contracts.
