How do I send DIODE from my node back to a wallet?

With the accountant feature, you can transfer DIODE from your node back to your wallet, following these steps.

Important: Any DIODE sent to your node will be automatically staked for at least one full epoch (except in version 1.6.0 and earlier, where it’s not auto-staked yet).

This staking ensures the network can route bandwidth reliably to your node.

Your node’s balance and staking history help determine its reputation in the network.
