# Becoming an Accreditor Node Any partner working within the Abachi ecosystem can apply to become an accreditor. To ensure the actor is not malicious and is vested in the protocol, they provide a stake to join the accreditor pool.\ \ Once this is done, the partner can then issue business DID and certificates along with tokenized form of Compliance via KYC/AML tokens. \ \ This will allow any wallet that has this token to be used across the ecosystem without sharing any data. The NFT / Token that represents the KYC can be tracked back the accreditor.\ \ Accreditor nodes also provide the service of providing trust and compliance knowledge between various partners. Each node in the system will need to stake to provide a proof of stake to the system and thwart any malicious activity.\ \ A way to think about accreditor nodes is akin to on-chain KYC providers. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
