Building a Temple

A Temple is a collection of 10 Sanctuaries. The first 12 Temples that we Christen will be named after a Tribe of Israel and will receive a special Seal.

When you run a temple you are not only helping the BiblePay network by providing a cluster of Ten Sanctuaries (helping the users sync blocks and conduct instant send transactions), but you also act as an API node. Your node is entrusted to hold our active Orphan Sponsorship list, orphan expenses, orphan revenue records, Gospel Articles and Content, Gospel Wiki Content, Images hosted on our web site (Unchained.biblepay.org), our Wells project, the active Proposals and Voting records, Phone call transactions, and other database transactions.

Note that Temples are rewarded at the same rate as other sanctuaries so the Temple operator is not earning more rewards than the average sanctuary owner, it is more of a community service position.

Note that this information below was outdated. You now just create a Sanctuary with Temple sized collateral (4,500,001 * 10).
