t3rn Executors

The blockchain ecosystem has reached a pivotal moment—cross-chain infrastructure is no longer experimental but actively powering real-world transactions on mainnet. As users demand fluid asset movement between networks, robust execution layers have become essential. t3rn now operates live on mainnet, with our Executor network processing actual cross-chain transactions and delivering verifiable proofs for every operation.

Our Executors serve as the backbone of live cross-chain execution, facilitating real transactions while earning rewards for their participation. These operators provide essential liquidity and ensure transaction finality across multiple blockchain networks. Each successful execution generates cryptographic proof hashes that can be verified on-chain, establishing an immutable record of cross-chain activity. With our transaction volume steadily climbing toward the 1 million mark, the network demonstrates consistent growth and reliability.

What Makes an Executor Essential?

Executors are live participants who process actual cross-chain transactions on mainnet. They stake assets, execute orders in real-time, and receive compensation through transaction fees and BRN token rewards.

Every execution produces a verifiable proof hash (like 0xc899...492a viewable at explorer.t3rn.io), ensuring transparency and security across all supported networks.

Live Executor Performance

Our mainnet Executors are actively generating profits while securing the network:

Streamlined Docker Deployment

Getting started as a mainnet Executor is now effortless with our containerized approach. Simply clone our executor-release repository, configure your private key in the .envrc file, and choose from pre-built Docker compositions: native assets (docker-compose.mainnet.native.yml), ERC20 tokens (docker-compose.mainnet.tokens.yml), or TRN only (docker-compose.mainnet.trn.yml). Each execution automatically generates proof hashes that you can track on our mainnet explorer, providing complete transparency for your cross-chain operations.

The Future is Live

With mainnet execution delivering real value and our transaction volume approaching 1 million, t3rn has moved beyond testnet promises to production reality. The combination of simplified Docker deployment, proven profit generation, and verifiable on-chain proofs makes joining our Executor network both accessible and rewarding.

t3rn is rolling out a new, transparent, data-driven system for selecting Ambassadors now powered by Borged.io. Instead of manual decisions and limited on-chain voting, the next Ambassador cohort will be chosen based on real community activity tracked through the Borged leaderboard. The Top 13 contributors in the t3rn Campaign will become Ambassadors, with all tasks, points, and engagement publicly visible. Nothing changes in Ambassador rewards — only the selection process. This update ensures fair competition, measurable contribution, and a scalable approach as the community grows. The campaign is live and open to everyone. Join early, complete tasks, and climb the leaderboard to earn your spot.

We take a look into how Ethereum’s narrative has evolved from scaling to connecting. What began as a race to make transactions faster and cheaper has now matured into a focus on interoperability, modularity, and composability. As scaling solutions like rollups and data availability layers have become foundational, the new challenge lies in linking Ethereum’s many layers into a unified ecosystem. We explore how upgrades such as Dencun, the rise of major Layer 2s, and emerging technologies like shared sequencing and cross-chain execution are shaping this next phase. Ethereum’s future is no longer just about scaling up — it’s about scaling together.

t3rn has introduced a fully automated, on-chain TRN Buyback Programme — a self-sustaining system that continuously channels protocol revenue back into TRN. Every 1st and 15th of the month, smart contracts on Arbitrum execute transparent buybacks via Uniswap V4, turning cross-chain activity into long-term token value growth. As protocol usage increases, so do buybacks — creating a feedback loop where more transactions mean stronger TRN performance. Purchased tokens are redistributed through governance rewards, staking bonuses, and ecosystem initiatives, aligning community success with protocol growth.
