Qubetics runs a decentralized solver network on its Chain Abstraction Protocol. Solvers operate Multi-Party Computation nodes to process cross-chain transactions and help secure the protocol. Instanodes provisions the server infrastructure for you, with ports, firewalls, and monitoring set up out of the box. Once your node is live, you complete a short onboarding flow on the Qubetics Solver Dashboard to register, fund your position, and start earning rewards.
This guide walks you through the full setup, from deploying your node on Instanodes to verifying an Active solver on mainnet.
Ready to deploy your Solver Node?
Sign in to the Instanodes dashboard and have your node live in under five minutes.
What You Will Set Up
- Deploy and pay for a Solver Node on Instanodes
- Retrieve your Node ID and Node URL from the Instanodes dashboard
- Connect your Web3 wallet on the Qubetics Solver Dashboard
- Register your solver on the network
- Add liquidity in BTC and TICS
- Verify your solver status
- Monitor uptime, rank, and rewards
- Withdraw liquidity when needed
Before You Start
Have the following ready before you begin.
- An Instanodes account at instanodes.io
- A Web3 wallet such as MetaMask, Keplr, or any WalletConnect compatible wallet
- BTC and TICS in your wallet to meet the minimum liquidity threshold
- A whitelisted BTC wallet address and a whitelisted EVM wallet address for registration
- A Node URL reachable over HTTPS
Your Node ID and Node URL come from Instanodes after deployment. Keep both ready before opening the Solver Dashboard.
Node URL Requirement
The Solver Dashboard accepts HTTPS URLs only. Your Node URL follows this format.
https://your-domain-or-ip
If your node IP has no domain, set up an HTTPS proxy before registration.
How to Bind Your Node URL to HTTPS
- Set up a proxy server with nginx or AWS ALB. Route traffic from your node IP and port through ports 80 and 443.
- Configure the proxy to redirect HTTP on port 80 to HTTPS on port 443.
- Install an SSL certificate with Certbot from Let's Encrypt, or use a third party certificate.
- Map your server IP to your domain name.
For the full walkthrough, see the Instanodes guide on serving HTTPS through nginx.
Part A. Deploy Your Node on Instanodes
Step 1. Sign In to Instanodes
Go to the Instanodes dashboard and create an account or sign in with OTP, Google, or social login. Open the sign in page.

Instanodes provisions a server pre-configured for Solver nodes. You do not configure ports, firewalls, or monitoring.
Step 3. Select a Plan
Choose a subscription term. Longer terms lower the monthly rate.
- One month at the standard rate
- Three months at a reduced rate
- Six months at a further reduced rate
- Twelve months at the lowest rate
Plan selection screen with billing periods and Proceed to Checkout
Pick a term and continue to checkout.

Confirm payment to start provisioning.
Step 5. Node Provisioning
Instanodes shows a confirmation screen after payment. Provisioning begins right away. Your server ships with the required ports, security rules, and monitoring already configured.

Step 7. Retrieve Your Node Credentials
Click Manage on your Solver Node card to reveal your credentials.
- Node URL is the HTTPS address of your node.
- Node ID is your unique solver identifier, also referred to as Solver ID.

Step 8. Open the Solver Dashboard
The Solver Dashboard is where you register your node, manage liquidity, and track rewards. Open the dashboard and begin the onboarding flow.
Step 9. Connect Your Wallet
Click Connect Wallet on the dashboard. Your wallet address auto-fills after connection and becomes your solver identity on the network.

Step 10. Register Your Solver
Fill in the Solver Information form. Every field is required. Each value must be unique on the network.
- Connected Wallet Address fills in once your wallet connects.
- Node Address (Solver ID) is the value from your Instanodes credentials.
- Node URL is your HTTPS node address, for example https://yourdomain.com.
- Solver Name is a custom label. Pick a unique name.
- BTC Wallet is your whitelisted BTC address for adding liquidity.
- EVM Wallet is your whitelisted EVM address for adding liquidity.
Solver Information form with all required fields
All field values must be new. The platform rejects duplicates.
Click Register. Approve the transaction in your wallet to record your solver in the network smart contract.

Step 11. Enter the Solver Dashboard
After registration, you appear in the solver network with Pending status. Add liquidity to activate your solver. Click Go to Dashboard.
Your dashboard shows the following details.
- Node Status, set to Inactive until liquidity is verified
- Liquidity Status, set to Inactive until liquidity is verified
- Node Uptime counter
- Solver Rank on the leaderboard
- Recent Activity log

Managing Liquidity and Rewards
Adding Liquidity
The solver network supports BTC and TICS. Deposit both to activate your solver.
- Click Add next to the token you want to deposit.
- Check the minimum deposit shown for the token. Send more than the minimum.
- Tick the acknowledgement checkboxes.
- Click Show Address to Send Funds.
- Copy the deposit address.
- Transfer the funds from your whitelisted wallet.

Send funds only from your registered whitelisted wallet. Transfers from other wallets are not recognized.
Once your transfer confirms on chain, your balance updates on the dashboard. The deposit appears in Recent Activity.

Verifying Your Solver Status
A Verify Status button appears after you add liquidity.

Click Verify Liquidity. Approve the transaction in your wallet.
Once verified, both Node Status and Solver Status turn Active. Your solver is live on the network.

Subscription Expiry and Grace Period
Instanodes handles your infrastructure. You focus on reliability and rewards.
If you do not renew your Instanodes plan, the platform applies a seven day grace period. Your infrastructure stays online during this window. Use the time to withdraw funds or renew your plan. After the grace period ends, Instanodes releases the underlying resources.
Common Issues and Fixes
- Solver status stays inactive after adding liquidity. Complete the verification step. Click Verify Liquidity on the dashboard, approve the wallet transaction, and status switches to Active once the transaction confirms.
- Registration form rejected. Every field must be unique on the network. Check your Solver Name, Node ID, and Node URL against previous entries, and pick a different Solver Name if needed.
- Claim button disabled. Your reward balance is below the minimum claim threshold for the token. Keep your solver running. The button activates once your balance reaches the threshold.
- Node URL rejected. The dashboard accepts HTTPS URLs only. Confirm your URL starts with https://. If your node uses a raw IP address, follow the HTTPS binding steps before registration.
- Liquidity transfer not showing. Confirm you transferred from your registered whitelisted wallet. Other addresses are ignored. Wait for the transaction to confirm on chain, then refresh the dashboard.
- Full withdrawal warning. A full liquidity withdrawal moves your solver to inactive and stops reward earnings. The dashboard shows a warning before you confirm. A partial withdrawal above the minimum threshold keeps your solver active.
Final User Action
You have a Solver Node provisioned by Instanodes and an active solver on the Qubetics network. Monitor your dashboard for uptime, rank, and rewards. Add more liquidity when you want to scale your position. Claim rewards once your balance crosses the minimum threshold for each token. Renew your Instanodes plan before expiry to keep your node running past the grace period.
