Rewards Breakdown
-
Staking Rewards: Staking rewards are computed and issued once per epoch. An epoch is approximately 2 days long. Rewards accrued in a given epoch are issued to all validators and delegators in the first block of the following epoch. Staking yield is presented as an annualized figure, though this number varies each epoch as the inflation rate and total active stake continually change
-
MEV Rewards: We run Jito, and Jito users pay Jito for getting their transactions included. Jito distributes this to delegators, but validators can set a commission (independent of the regular staking commission).
-
APY: Rewards are issued once per epoch and are deposited into the stake account that earned them. Stake rewards are automatically re-delegated as active stake. APY is the annualized yield from staking rewards plus MEV.
Node Operators apply a commission on both Staking Rewards and MEV. The yield for the final delegator is computed by deducting this commission from accrued rewards during epochs.
Skip Rate determines the availability of a validator to correctly propose a block when selected as leader. A Node Operator with high skip rate means less total rewards, since a higher number of slot is missed. Missing a slot has impact on inflation rewards and MEV.
Timely Vote Credit (TVC) instead are used to compute the final Staking Rewards a validator earn each epoch. TVC are then a measure of validator uptime.
