I have a small query. I have to keep running the node for 24 hours a day for 14 consecutive days or 2 to 3 hrs per day will be enough for this challenge?

[Zaka1221]

I have a small query. I have to keep running the node for 24 hours a day for 14 consecutive days or 2 to 3 hrs per day will be enough for this challenge?

You need to keep running your node until it reaches at least 99% sync progress. Whether you run it for 2 to 3 hours a day or 24 hours depend on your internet speed and how quickly your node syncs. Challenge requires you to run node for at least 14 days but running it 24/7 is not mandatory. If your node has not reached 99% sync progress by day 14 you should continue running it until you reach required progress. Even if you reach 99% before day 14, you still need to complete  14 day challenge and submit your daily report according to rules.
