Does the hardware get shipped out already if we order or are they yet to be built?

Hi! Every hardware you see it's available and around 150-200 nodes were already shipped to early adopters. For big physical nodes there's a waiting time of 2-3 weeks for shipping (we got cleared on the first batch in literally no time

). VNodes are always available and micronodes will take no less than 2 weeks to ship.

For every kind of node, there's a shipping process, since the Revo access token for airdrop enrollment is a physical NFC coin that get mailed to your location

how does one become an early adopter?
I see the ann was posted in June but the chains seems to be running for some time?

Are all the "early" coins already given out?

By getting an hardware node, you actually support actively REVO blockchain and the team behind development. You're then getting airdropped as partecipation gift an amount of coins between 2000 and 5000. (smart contract automatically handle the process given your personal access token)

RVO allocated for Airdrop are still available to be checked at this address https://mainnet.revo.network/address/RAirdropS6HVMNBN1Wy3Ac2FXE25RnmoZ2/

Bitcointalk ANN was made "late" because we focused on services currently running on chain for other Clients and chain stability. We do things for good, and we are used to triple check everything. On blockchain realated stuff, there is no room for mistakes!

is there a faucet where one can get some coins for transactions to play with the chain a bit?

Hello! No right now there's no faucet for mainnet coins (only for testnet, available on revo.network), but you could try to ask on our telegram channel for some coins to try things out, or get even a single RVO from XeggeX, you should be able to perform atleast 10,000 smart contract transactions with a single one, if I remember the numbers right

cool, will do so.
Another question, the Staking can be done only via the nodes or also via the local wallet?
The local wallet looks pretty much like the good ole coins back in the day so I assume that staking via local wallet is also a viable option?

Correct! Revo Core is based on QT libraries like Bitcoin. So staking works as usual like all other cryptocurrencies 🙂
