# Changes to Node Reward Distribution Rules

Due to frequent offline incidents among nodes in regions such as Japan, Brazil, Thailand, and Vietnam, sudden resource demand gaps have occurred, disrupting the normal addition of other resources. To address this, we are adjusting the reward distribution rules for nodes in these regions.&#x20;

**ps: This adjustment does not apply to nodes in Mainland China.**



We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

We encourage you to maintain consistent node operation to ensure stable rewards.



<mark style="color:red;">**Updated reward distribution rules:**</mark>

1. <mark style="color:red;">**Rewards will be distributed only after a total runtime of 7 days is achieved.**</mark>
2. <mark style="color:red;">Rewards from the</mark> <mark style="color:red;"></mark><mark style="color:red;">**most recent 7-day period will be locked**</mark><mark style="color:red;">.</mark> <mark style="color:purple;">A day is counted toward the 7-day requirement</mark> <mark style="color:purple;"></mark><mark style="color:purple;">**only if the node runs for at least 2 hours**</mark><mark style="color:purple;">.</mark>



**Detailed explanation:**

* If your total runtime is less than 7 days, rewards will be locked and not distributed.
* Rewards from the most recent 7 days will be fully locked. On the **8th day**, 60% of Day 1’s rewards will be distributed (the remaining 40% stays in the lock-up pool). On the **9th day**, 60% of Day 2’s rewards will be distributed.
* A day is **counted toward the 7-day period only if the node runs for ≥2 hours**. Days with <2 hours of runtime are excluded until the requirement is met.



**Effective date:** March 27, 2025.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We apologize again for any inconvenience.
