1.0 Introduction

EOS EVM is the most performant Ethereum Virtual Machine available in the market. You not only can develop decentralized applications (dApps) on EOS EVM, but also can earn EOS as an EOS EVM transaction miner. You don't need any special account to become an EOS EVM miner, your normal EOS account will serve the purpose.

2.0 What does EOS EVM Transaction Miners do?

The EOS EVM transaction miner serves as a straightforward transaction relay mechanism designed to transfer Ethereum-formatted transactions to the eosio.evm contract within the EOS native network. In return for offering this relay service, you get EOS as a reward.
