For some time now, we've onboarded Hosts onto the network manually, and sometimes it has taken a little while to process the backlog, especially when we have a surge of new devices. This is no longer the case. You're now able to register and start a device in the time it takes an Ethereum transfer to process.
Getting started
To give you an idea of how easy the new process is, let's start by creating a stake.
$ edge-cli stake list
ID Device Verified Unique Amount
$ edge-cli stake new
