 ====== What is the Qortal Project? ======
+**PLEASE NOTE:** this is a publication from July 2021. A lot of development has happened since and some of the info below may be outdated! Development on Qortal has been outpacing documentation for a while, and while documentation catches up, the best way to get the most updated information is to reach out to someone in the Qortal community. [[https://qortal.org/get-involved/]] contains links to the various internet methods to join the community, or of course one may simply install Qortal Hub or Qortal Go (or access them via their hosted-access methods that require no installation) and join directly. Updates to this wiki and many other documentation locations for the project will continue to be made over time.

+====NOTE - This document is here for historical purposes, and will be replaced by an updated version in the relatively near future. While many of concepts here are correct, and the ideals of the project wholly the same, the project is now MUCH more advanced than it was at the time of original writing, and as such is in a completely new generation regarding functionality, performance, stability, and more. It is highly recommended to JOIN THE COMMUNITY to obtain the newest information, and also to check out [[https://qortal.dev | https://qortal.dev]] - which is much more actively updated at this point in time (April 19th 2025). Thank you and here's to the continual advancement and optimization of the Qortal Blockchain Project.====

 The same key can be used on
-multiple nodes to provide 'redundancy' for the minter of the assigned key. This means an account can have more than one computer or hardware device minting so if a device stops minting for whatever reason, other devices are still supporting the chain and the account continues to earn the associated reward. In the future, there will be a 'bonus' given to minters who have decided to provide their key to multiple nodes and thus provide further support to the network. However, at first, there is no benefit other than redundancy for the minter.
