The cost of running a Farcaster node is relatively high, and there is currently no incentive system in place for those who operate nodes. In an effort to address this, Ferrule is looking to implement Eigenlayer's re-staking mechanism, which aims to encourage broader participation in the security validation process of Farcaster through the act of staking. This approach is designed to provide incentives to node operators, thereby supporting the overall network security and sustainability.
