FAQs

Why join Datagram?

Datagram allows you to earn rewards by sharing your unused internet and computing resources. Whether you're contributing bandwidth, participating in the Alpha Testnet, or referring friends, you can earn Reward Points that convert to $DGRAM tokens.

The platform also supports large-scale real-time communication, decentralized AI compute, and offers infrastructure for Web3 projects—all while reducing costs by up to 90% compared to centralized services.

Is Datagram safe to use?

Yes. Datagram is built with privacy and security at its core. The desktop application does not access your personal data or browsing activity. It operates in a sandboxed environment, using your IP address strictly to route verified traffic, which is isolated from your personal system.

End-to-end encryption and self-sovereign network capabilities ensure that no third party can intercept your data.

How much can I earn with Datagram?

Earnings vary based on:

• Your uptime and availability as a node operator

• Participation in the Alpha Testnet

• Referral bonuses (up to 3 tiers)

• Reward Points (converted to $DGRAM at TGE/Mainnet)

Top contributors may also win Full Core Node Licenses worth $500+ and get whitelisted for early node sales. Node operators can earn up to 1,000 Reward Points/day, plus bonuses through confirmed referrals.

Will Datagram slow down my internet connection?

No. Datagram is optimized to use only a small portion of your bandwidth. The platform is designed to ensure high availability without affecting your primary internet usage. You can also pause or stop sharing at any time.

Can someone misuse my IP address?

No. Datagram routes only verified and regulated traffic through your IP. Advanced traffic validation, usage restrictions, and network-level safeguards ensure that no malicious or illegal traffic passes through your connection.

Is my device or system at risk?

Not at all. The Datagram application runs independently from your files, software, and system processes. It cannot access or alter any part of your system. It's specifically designed for secure, low-risk participation.

What are the system requirements?

Datagram supports most modern Windows, macOS, and Linux machines. You need:

• A stable internet connection

• Minimum system uptime for earning

• The desktop application is to run during uptime snapshots

Can I stop sharing my internet at any time?

Yes. You can stop, pause, or disconnect from the network whenever you wish. Once disconnected, Reward Points will not be earned until you reconnect and meet the uptime snapshot requirements.

Is Datagram legal in my country?

In most regions, yes. However, you should always check with your ISP and local regulations. Datagram avoids operating in countries with strict internet or blockchain restrictions. It routes only compliant and verifiable traffic to maintain full legality.

How does Datagram protect my privacy?

Your privacy is a priority. Datagram doesn’t track your activity or collect personal information. Datagram uses:

• End-to-end encryption

• No access to personal files or browsing

• On-chain transparency and governance

• Self-sovereign Full Cores that give businesses and users complete control over their data

This ensures your participation remains private, anonymous, and secure at all times.
