Solana validators do not perform cryptocurrency mining.



I'm well aware of this. Read the T&C and I'm sure even you can understand the intent.


Are we talking about the actual T&C or the "intent" of T&C?


"The operation of applications for mining cryptocurrencies remains prohibited. These include, but are not limited to, mining, farming and plotting of cryptocurrencies"

It's pretty clear they basically prohibit everything related to cryptocurrencies, even content, as you can see in their T&C.


I have no idea what farming and plotting are. But if they wanted to prohibit everything related to cryptocurrencies, they would not say ‘applications for mining cryptocurrencies’ but rather more definitive language such as ‘applications for operating cryptocurrencies’
