Flux has 3 tiers of nodes
1. Cumulus: Requires 1000 $FLUX
2. Nimbus: Requires 12,500 $FLUX
3. Stratus: Requires 40,000 $FLUX
This collateral isn’t locked and belongs to users. Flux node operators are able to delete their node and sell collateral whenever they want. Current rewards for running a node can be seen on the FLUX dashboard – www.home.runonflux.io.
Recently Flux introduced Titan on-chain staking. The Titan nodes are powerful Stratus tier Flux nodes operated by experienced Flux node operators. The Titan nodes leverage Lumen Technologies infrastructure to create attractive and powerful hosting solutions for Enterprise clients. To keep things decentralized, community providers have stepped up and stood up servers for Titan as well. To participate, all you need is to have 50 Flux in the official Zelcore wallet for the minimum Titan collateral. Via Zelcore, you will be able to lock your Flux in a 3, 6, or 12-month stake and participate in a shared Titan node on the FluxOS marketplace. After this time, you will have your collateral unlocked along with your staking rewards. You also have the option to auto-renew your stake, the Titan nodes will then auto-compound your original stake and rewards.
Current rewards for running a Titan node can be seen on the FLUX dashboard – https://home.runonflux.io/apps/shared-nodes.

How do users benefit from Flux? What is the simplest way to take part in Flux?
There are many ways of making the most of your FLUX. At first just by holding. Every time FLUX introduces a new parallel asset there is an airdrop of the new tokens to FLUX holders. Then running nodes, on-chain staking in Titan nodes and staking on Coinmetro. Of course you can also be a Flux miner! Thanks to parallel mining it is very profitable, because you not only earn Flux on the main chain but on all parallel chains as well, in a 1:10 ratio to FLUX. You can also earn FLUX by getting involved with the Flux community on Discord.
Who are important partners of Flux and how do these partnerships help the ecosystem?
Flux is extremely proud to be a part of Nvidia’s Inception program! Flux will be able to evolve faster through access to NVIDIA’s cutting-edge technology and experts, networking events, and co-marketing support.
Flux has partnered with Seeed Studio, which develops hardware for home-hosted Flux nodes.
Recently, Flux announced a partnership with Lumen Technologies (a Fortune 500 company) and OVHcloud (Europe's leading cloud provider). They will work together to increase the adoption of Web3 and the underlying next-gen technologies by creating an attractive technological platform for enterprise clients.
Flux is also working with the University of Applied Sciences in Geneva, Switzerland on PoUW use case buildout.
One of Flux's biggest partnerships is Kadena. Most of Kadena's nodes are hosted on the Flux network. This long-standing relationship has steadily grown over the years and today Flux is the default cloud platform for most projects in the Kadena ecosystem such as KDLaunch, Kaddex, KDSwap, Docushield, Timpi, Babena, Miners of Kadenia, KDABet, Kadcars NFT, KadeFi, Arkade, Kadena Weeb, and more.
Outside the Kadena ecosystem, Flux also provides decentralized Web3 infrastructure for some (projects or Dapps) such as Kusama nodes, Polkadot nodes, Presearch nodes, Firo nodes, Ethereum light node, Rosetta Server, Raven nodes and explorer, Anchor Protocol, Haven Vault, Pangolin DEX, Aave Liquidity Protocol, Ergo Auctions, Osmosis, Dash nodes and explorer, Ragnar Finance, and more. Games and productivity apps have also found a home on Flux.
One of the great successes that has been increasing the number of projects that use Flux infrastructure to deploy their DApps, nodes or even part of their infrastructure is FluxLabs, an incubation and acceleration project for blockchain and technology-based projects with a focus on early stage startups in the emerging blockchain and cryptocurrency industries.
