Rewards

When staking in Pictor Checker Nodes, Checkers receive rewards for helping secure the network by validating computing jobs.

There are two reward types,

  • Block Rewards: Earned by staking Pictor Checker Node NFTs in Pictor Checker Nodes.

  • Shared Revenue: Earned by staking both Pictor Checker Node NFTs and PICTOR tokens in the Checker Nodes.

1. Block Rewards

Eligibility

To receive Block Rewards, you must:

Reward Distribution

Block Rewards are currently calculated and distributed weekly as Pictor Network's sub-token (sPICTOR), which will be converted 1:1 into PICTOR tokens at TGE.

Each staked NFT generates a fixed number of sPICTOR every epoch (week), based on its tier as follows:

NFT Tier

Reward Calculation

Block Rewards are calculated based on both the number of NFTs staked and the staking duration within each epoch (7 days - 10,080 minutes).

  • If an NFT is staked for the full epoch (10,080 minutes), it receives the full epoch reward.

  • If an NFT is staked for only part of the epoch, it receives a pro-rated reward based on the staking duration.

  • If an NFT is unstaked, it stops accumulating block rewards from that point onward.

🔷 Formula:

Reward=Staking duration (minutes)10,080×Number of NFTs staked×Epoch Block Reward Reward = \frac{Staking\ duration\ (minutes)}{10{,}080} \times Number\ of\ NFTs\ staked \times Epoch\ Block\ Reward\

🔷 Example:

  • You stake 2 Gold NFTs at the start of the epoch and keep them staked for all 10,080 minutes → you earn the full epoch reward.

  • You stake 3 Bronze NFTs halfway through the epoch, for 4 days (5,760 minutes). The reward is calculated proportionally to your staking duration.

Your total reward will be:

Total reward=(10,08010,080×2×186.15) +(5,76010,080×3×38.46)=438.23 sPICTORTotal\ reward = (\frac{10{,}080}{10{,}080} \times 2 \times 186.15 )\ + (\frac{5{,}760}{10{,}080} \times 3 \times 38.46 )= 438.23\ sPICTOR

2. Shared-Revenue

This mechanism will allow NFT + token stakers to share in Pictor Network’s actual revenue. More details will be announced after $PICTOR is launched.
