 # Run a Validator Node
 
-Validator nodes runs a distributed consensus protocol, execute the transaction, and store the transaction and the execution results on the blockchain. Validator nodes decide which transactions will be added to the blockchain and in which order. Read more about [Validator node concepts](/basics/basics-validator-nodes).
+The Aptos blockchain consists of validator nodes that run a distributed consensus protocol. The consensus protocol agrees upon the ordering of transactions and their results and then store both the transactions and output on the blockchain. Read more about [Validator node concepts](/basics/basics-validator-nodes).
 
 For incentivized testnet, we're recommending every node operator to run a validator with a fullnode, so all the reference implementation used here will have both nodes installed by default.
 
-This tutorial explains how to configure a validator node to run on test mode, which will be used during the registration stage to validate your eligibility, and how to connect to incentivized testnet once you're selected to run a validator node. Users not selected to run a validator node can still run a public fullnode to connect to incentivized testnet.

 the average transaction rate and the configuration of the ledger pruner.

 Running a validator node in test mode is required to be eligible for incentivized testnet. This is a method we use to verify that a node operator can successfully start a validator node, and have it properly configured with Aptos network identity. In test mode, you will be running a local network with one single node, it should be functioning like a normal blockchain. You can follow those guide to install your node in test mode:
