Rewards Program
Incentivizing Network Security
The ANALOS Validators Rewards Program is a community-driven incentive mechanism designed to reward active validators for securing the network. Unlike traditional staking rewards, our program allocates a portion of ecosystem fees (from DEX swaps, launchpad trades, and migrations) directly into a dedicated rewards pool. These rewards are distributed proportionally based on each validator's stake weight, ensuring fair and scalable compensation.
Launched in August 2025 alongside the mainnet fork, this program embodies ANALOS's commitment to decentralization and sustainability. By channeling real ecosystem revenue back to validators, we create a virtuous cycle: more staking → stronger security → higher activity → larger rewards.
How It Works
Fee Allocation
A fixed percentage of all protocol fees is automatically routed to the validators rewards pool:
| Fee Source | Rate |
|---|---|
| Launchpad Fees | 0.5% of each swap |
| DEX Fees | 0.5% of each swap |
| Migration Fees | 5% of bonding curve |
Distribution Mechanism
Rewards are distributed weekly:
- Stake Calculation: Total staked $LOS across all validators.
- Weighting: Each validator's share = (Their Stake / Total Stake).
- Payout: Rewards = Pool Amount × Weight.
This ensures proportional fairness - larger stakes earn more, but no single validator dominates.
Benefits for Validators
| Benefit | Description |
|---|---|
| Passive Income | Earn from ecosystem activity without selling $LOS. |
| Fee-Driven | Rewards scale with DEX/launchpad volume - real utility. |
| Low Barrier | Stake as little as 1% of $LOS supply to participate. |
| Transparent | Live dashboard at vaults.analos.io. |
| Secure | Audited contracts; no slashing risks. |
Why Stake with ANALOS?
- High Performance: faster confirmations, more rewards.
- Cross-Chain: Stake $LOS on ANALOS → bridge rewards to SOLANA.
- Governance: Staked validators vote on upgrades.
Stake. Secure. Earn.
