+If you run a main seednode, you also are obliged to activate the monitoring feed by running
+
+```bash
+curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bisq-network/bisq/master/monitor/install_collectd_debian.sh | sudo bash
+```
+Follow the instruction given by the script and report your certificate to the seednode group!
