Incentive

1. 10% $Sonic Allocation for all validators, with a 4-year halving mechanism.
   1. In the first 4 years, each month will be issued 2,500,000 $veSonic
   2. In the early stages, monthly rewards will be determined based on the validators within the HSSN.
2. Delegation Program
   1. The foundation will support the setup of some early validators by providing the required staking amount

Validators Rewards

1. Gas fee
   1. Across all HyperGrid Multiverse
2. Commission Fee (for Validators)
   1. 20% of rewards will go to validators
   2. validators may need to lower down the percentage after retail staking is opened
3. Staking Rewards (Delegation)
   1. Estimated 20% APY

Let’s give an example:

• Validator A Staking Rewards per year = 7,200,000 SONIC * 20% APY * 20% Commission Fee * (300,000,000 / 2,400,000,000) = 36,000 USD
