Guarantors

The easiest way to start up a new Miner using existing Miners as collateral

Sometimes SPs control multiple, individual Miner Actors. Each Miner Actor might be different in its equity value, scalability, and geography. The guarantor model allows a single SP to aggregate multiple Miner Actors together, aggregating its equity and borrowing power. This architecture allows a big Miner Actor with a large equity value to post collateral for a much smaller node to borrow funds.

Use a big Miner to act as borrowing collateral for a small Miner

The Miner Actor that serves as the collateral node does not need to be the Miner Actor that ends up receiving borrowed funds. See more information about aggregating borrowing power under the Add/Remove Miners section.
