# Checker Node NFT

### What is the Checker Node NFT?

The Checker Node NFT acts as the **license that allows you to become a Checker (Checker Node Operator) in the Pictor Network**. If you own one, you have the right to join the network's validator layer, help run Checker Nodes, and receive rewards.

Each Checker Node NFT also comes with a **rarity level** — Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Titanium, or Iridium. The rarity defines how strong your position is within the network: rarer NFTs give higher staking power,  and the higher the potential rewards you can earn.&#x20;

### NFT Utilities

The Checker Node NFT has two main utilities:

* **Access Pass** – It serves as proof that you are an official Checker (Checker Node Operator), giving you the right to run a node and confirm your role in validating jobs to help secure the network.
* **Reward Gateway** – When staked, your NFT becomes the key to unlocking future staking rewards tied to the Checker Node system.

### NFT Tiers

Checker Node NFTs come in six rarity levels, each representing a different stake size, earning potential, and contribution weight to the network. The rarer the NFT, the higher its staking rewards.
