# Relay Setup

This Relay Educator Series is intended to help you set up a Relay in the Anon network to earn recognition rewards in exchange for bandwidth and layered encryption of network traffic.

## Welcome to the Anyone Relay Setup Docs! 

Anyone's core vision is to make true privacy the reality for every mainstream internet user. The key to this vision is DePIN - a decentralized infrastructure of nodes around the world that make up the Anon Network. But no DePIN is complete without its node operators.

If you are here to learn, teach and help build the privacy network for anyone, you have come to the right place! The Relay Setup pages are a set of living docs to help you run a relay in the Anon Network, use the network and earn decentralized rewards.
