Incentivized Testnet Stake Pool Meta Data Registry

Background

This repository provides a means to register public stake pool meta data for the Incentivized Testnet. Successful registrations will result in the listing of a stake pool as a delegation option in all of the supported testnet wallets (Daedalus & Yoroi).

Adding your stake pool to this registry is only one of several steps required to get your stake pool up and running. Please refer to the testnet site for a description of the entire process.

Use of this registry is subject to the following usage policy

Process

New stake pool registration

Stake pool registrants will provide signed submissions in the form of Github pull requests into this testnet pool registry. Here they will be subject to automated checking for well-formedness and human vetting before being merged to master.

Stake pool de-registration

This action does not require any changes to the registry -- the inactive pools are simply ignored.

Updating existing entries

Semantic content of registry entries

Each entry contains the following information:

name	necessity	description
`owner`	required	subject identifier public key
`name`	required	stake pool name
`description`	optional	stake pool description
`ticker`	required	stake pool ticker
`homepage`	required	URL of the stake pool's web page
`pledge_address`	required	a pledge address
-	required	signature (verifiable by the public key)

⚠️ The owner public key mentioned here must match your owner public key used for registering your stake pool on chain!

Precise entry validity rules are described in the following section.

Submission well-formedness rules

Submissions shall consist of a single commit, directly off the master branch of the incentivized-testnet-stakepool-registry repository.
Submissions are identified by the subject's Bech32-encoded Ed25519 public key (all lowercase).
Submissions shall either add a new entry or modify one.
Submissions shall involve (addition or modification) of exactly two files, under the registry subdirectory of the repository:
- the JSON submission entry file, with the .json extension (lowercase),
- the external signature of the file, with the .sig extension (lowercase).
The file name part of both files must match the aforementioned encoded owner public key, up to character case (all lowercase).
The external signature file must be a ed25519 signature of the content of the metadata JSON file.
The ticker and owner must be unique in the registry.

Contents of the JSON file:

Must be a JSON object, reasonably (non-offensively) formatted,
Must satisfy the following JSON-schema:
