Keep3r Network is a decentralized keeper network – it connects projects off-loading devops jobs and external teams ready to help. A Job is a term used to refer to a smart contract which is awaiting for an external entity to perform an action.

This action should be performed in "good will" without any malicious result. For this reason, action is registered as a job, and keepers can then execute on its contract.

Keeper

A Keeper is a term used to refer to an external person and/or team that executes a job. This can be as simplistic as sending a transaction, or as complex as requiring extensive off-chain logic.

The scope of Keep3r network is not to manage the jobs themselves, but to allow contracts to register as jobs for keepers, and keepers to register themselves as available to perform jobs.

It is up to the individual keepers to set up their devops infrastructure and create their own rules based on what job they deem profitable.

Each time keepers perform such a job, they are rewarded in the systems native token KP3R. The maximum amount of KP3R to spend is gasUsed + premium (configurable by governance).

Jobs

A Job is the term used to refer to a smart contract that wishes an external entity to perform an action. They would like the action to be performed in "good will" and not have a malicious result. For this reason they register as a job, and keepers can then execute on their contract. Both relying on the Keep3r ecosystem to mediate in the event of a dispute.
