Hardware-Attested Earning Validator Appliance With Sealed Capability Gating.

A staking validator appliance whose duties are gated by attested hardware. 22 claims.

A network-node appliance that stakes a native token and earns rewards for validating, whose eligibility to validate particular workloads or application chains is gated by a cryptographically attested hardware-capability profile sealed into its on-chain validator registration. It scales gracefully, validating only the workloads its attested hardware supports, with a slashing condition for false capability claims. Filed 10 June 2026 as GB2613399.1.
