The fast launch of the Vexanium blockchain after mainnet is by displaying a new consensus mechanism namely Delegate Proof Of Stake (DPoS), a blockchain that uses this consensus will join the ranks of other publicly available blockchains infrastructure, such as Steem, BitShares, Ark, and Eos. Users in the DPoS system choose a group or representative to be delegated, which is a trusted party that will be responsible for maintaining the vexanium blockchain network. As with voting, there will be fierce competition among those who race to become one of the best delegates on the vexanium blockchain, called Block Producers.

What is the Vexanium Block Producer?
Block producer (BPs) is one of the main innovations introduced by the Vexanium Foundation, and BPs will become a decentralized entity that manages the Vexanium blockchain. Instead of being run by a small number of mining pools, Vexanium BPs will have an ever changing group of 24-hour non-stop voting mechanisms, Top 21 BPs are Active Status BPs that are responsible for the Vexanium blockchain network, for BPs with rank 22 and above become BPs with the status Stand by.

BPs have the potential to create large incentives. BPs will get rewards for the creation of new blocks, rewards in the form of Vex coins generated by the token inflation mechanism. According to the digitalis.id site Vex coin rewards are given at 2% paid by BPs, the remaining 3% will be locked in worker proposals (saving’s) of a total of 5% of total inflation each year. for any details the benefits of being a BPs have been discussed in detail here.

After a little understanding of the Vexanium BPs description, the next is what are the requirements needed to register as BPs on the vexanium blockchain network:

1. Have a Vex coin of> 5,000,000 Vex to enter the Top 21 active BPs, or less than <5,000,000 Vex to become Passive BPs.
2. Noted: Vex coin is used to give Vote to BPs who have just registered (made), all BPs voting processes are all using Vex coin staking and running 24 hours non-stop on the vexanium blockchain.
3. It has a VPS Server running 1 x 24 hours, with Linux OS Ubuntu version 18.04.3 LTS.
   Have a website that provides insight into these BPs.

After understanding the Vexanium BPs requirements, the next is how to register as BPs on the vexanium blockchain network, there are two ways to register as Vexanium BPs first using the linux Script from our VPS, the second with the Dapps Vexecosystem application we first discuss the first way:

Registering BPs using a Linux script:

1. VPS login using the Ssh, Putty or Termius application.
2. Download the unzip application to unzip the source code file with the command:
   apt-get install unzip
3. Download the source code for vex 1. 7.4bin_ubuntu18.zip with the command:
   get https://vexanium.com/files/vex1.7.4bin_ubuntu18.zip
4. Then proceed with the command:
   unzip vex1.7.4bin_ubuntu18.zip
5. Create a wallet on the server with the command:
   ./cleos wallet create –to-console
6. Import the vex private key wallet to the console, with the command:
   ./cleos wallet import –private-keyBP 5Jxxxxxxxxxxxx
7. Register your Vex account so BP, with the command:
   ./cleos –url http://209.97.162.124:8080 system regproducer accountvexyou VEXpublickeyAnda  sitewebyou
8. After registering our BPs, we can see the results at https://explorer.vexanium.com/producers on the site. Our BPs should be below the Top 21 BPs with stand by status.
9. Next is the Install Nodes, Install Nodes are used for Bps entering Top21, for BPs with stand-by status, there is no need to install nodes. Following is the Install Nodes command:
   nohup ./nodeos –max-irreversible-block-age -1 –contracts-console –genesis-json ./genesis.json –blocks-dir ./data/blocks –data-dir ./data –chain-state-db-size-mb 1024 –http-server-address 127.0.0.1:80 –p2p-listen-endpoint 0.0.0.0:8090 –max-clients 5 –p2p-max-nodes-per-host 5 –enable-stale-production –producer-name namaBPagan –signature-provider=VEXpublickeyAnda=KEY:5JprivatekeyAnda –plugin eosio::http_plugin –plugin eosio::chain_api_plugin –plugin eosio::producer_plugin –p2p-peer-address 209.97.162.124:8091 39.105.124.20:8092 > nodeos.log 2>&1 &
10. Check the node is running or not, with the command:
    tail -f nodeos.log
11. Create a wallet folder for claim rewards (folder names are up without spaces) with the following command:
    ./cleos wallet create -n namafolder --to-console
12. Save the password that appears with random characters, for example:
    PW5JpuF4SQGyzKHJBgJKDQ7RcFdVxJbJxziKbM9VQV1mKVRc5uwPS
13. Import or enter the Private Key of our BPs account, so the reward will be sent here with the following command:
    ./cleos wallet import -n namafolder privatekey_BPs
14. Then Unlock the wallet folder before making a claim with the command:
    ./cleos wallet unlock -n namafolder --password PW5Jww5rUwnJw8XWcpC5aUC1qf3SUHrDA6q9SgqJFCdFtG6zxrWvU
15. Then claim mine prizes every 1 × 24 hours, claim prizes can be done manually or automatically using the schedule command on Linux Ubuntu, for claims can be done manually with the following command:
    /cleos  –url  http://209.97.162.124:8080  system claimrewards  younnameBP

After understanding registration in the first way, the next is understanding BPs registration in the second way, this second method is much simpler and minimizes the Linux script.

Register BPs using Dapps Vexecosystem:

1. You must already have a vex account and have a vex wallet mobile and vex wallet PC, for details you can check here:
   vex wallet PC, vex wallet Mobile
2. Login your vex account from PC Wallet or from Vex Wallet Mobile (Smartphone)
3. Open website https://vexecosystem.com/
4. Click the Login button to recognize your vex account
5. Select the top left menu, then select the BPs list menu (to become a BPs Stand by you don’t need to install Nodes, but if you want to upgrade to Top 21 Active BPs then you need to install Nodes)
6. Fill in all your required BPs data (BPs name, Vex account address, website).
7. After registering our BPs, we can see the results at https://explorer.vexanium.com/producers on that site our BPs should be under the Top 21 BPs with stand by status
8. When you go to class and enter Top21 BPs then you need to install Nodes like the first way
9. VPS login using the Ssh, Putty or Termius application
10. Following is the Install Nodes command:
    nohup ./nodeos –max-irreversible-block-age -1 –contracts-console –genesis-json ./genesis.json –blocks-dir ./data/blocks –data-dir ./data –chain-state-db-size-mb 1024 –http-server-address 127.0.0.1:80 –p2p-listen-endpoint 0.0.0.0:8090 –max-clients 5 –p2p-max-nodes-per-host 5 –enable-stale-production –producer-name namaBPagan –signature-provider=VEXpublickeyAnda=KEY:5JprivatekeyAnda –plugin eosio::http_plugin –plugin eosio::chain_api_plugin –plugin eosio::producer_plugin –p2p-peer-address 209.97.162.124:8091 39.105.124.20:8092 > nodeos.log 2>&1 &
11. Check the node is running or not, with the command:
    tail -f nodeos.log
12. Create a wallet folder for claim rewards (folder names are up without spaces) with the following command:
    ./cleos wallet create -n namafolder --to-console
13. Save the password that appears with random characters, for example:
    PW5JpuF4SQGyzKHJBgJKDQ7RcFdVxJbJxziKbM9VQV1mKVRc5uwPS
14. Import or enter the Private Key of our BPs account, so the reward will be sent here with the following command:
    ./cleos wallet import -n namafolder privatekey_BPs
15. Then Unlock the wallet folder before making a claim with the command:
    ./cleos wallet unlock -n namefolder --password PW5Jww5rUwnJw8XWcpC5aUC1qf3SUHrDA6q9SgqJFCdFtG6zxrWvU
16. If you do not want to bother to claim via the terminal, then for claim rewards you can use Vexecosystem.com Dapps, then select the claim reward menu.

Conclusion
The vexanium blockchain has grown more rapidly over time, and is now making it easier for new users to get information specifically about how to become Vexanium BPs because many are interested in mining vex coins, becoming Delegates in Top21 BPs or passive income income from this BPs ecosystem.
