What Is A Validator Node?

In this video, I go over validator nodes and their functionality within the blockchain.

For those of you that don't know, a node is simply a computer that validates transactions on a blockchain. Every time your node validates a transaction, it produces income that is paid out in whatever native cryptocurrency that is tied to the blockchain you are validating on. To run a real node, you must know how to write complex code. After writing the code, you stake some of the cryptocurrency on the node and start earning income instantly. As the blockchain grows, you make more money.

Why do you think it's necessary to be spreading FUD about Doge coin right now when it's crashing, not cool dude -

[XiPodCrackerx]

I recently reading about streakk they creating a decentralized wallet with rewards without locking your coins using internal and external validators. My question is do the coins have to be send to the nodes for example eth 32 etherium to the node to pay out the rewards or how does the prove of stake works if there are bo transactions happening?
