FHE Model Validators and Privanetix Node Rewards

The Privasea network introduces a dual reward pool mechanism (PoW & PoS) for Privanetix node operators, ensuring robust incentives, scalability, and a seamless transition to a more efficient privacy infrastructure. This reward design supports early adoption and long-term sustainability while aligning with the evolving needs of the ecosystem.

Reward Pools

  • Privanetix Node Operation Reward Pool (Proof-of-Work, PoW)
  • Node Staking Reward Pool (Proof-of-Stake, PoS)

The Privasea Privanetix node reward system operates two distinct reward pools. Each pool allocates 0.1% of its current balance per phase. After a fixed number of phases (configurable dynamically, e.g., 15 phases, where 1 phase = 1 day), the pool balance is recalculated. Each pool is governed by a 0.1% decay function over 15 phases.

1.1 PoW Rewards

1.1.1 PoW Reward Pool (5% of Total Token Supply)

The PoW reward pool incentivizes computational contributions from Privanetix node operators. Rewards are distributed based on a node’s machine performance tier coefficient and uptime percentage, independent of staked tokens.

a. Base Rewards

Distributed at 0.1% of the remaining PoW pool balance per phase, calculated based on the weight ratio of each Privanetix node:

Weight = Tier Coefficient × Uptime Percentage

Example

Total token supply: 1 billion → PoW pool initial balance = 50 million.
Before pool recalculation, rewards per phase = 50,000,000 × 0.1% = 50,000 PRAI

b. Real-Time Distribution

50% of ecosystem fees (total tokens paid for FHE encryption tasks in the phase) are distributed as supplementary rewards based on node weight.

1.1.2 PoW Reward Structure

PoW rewards consist of two components:

a. Base Rewards (100% from PoW Pool)

Allocated from 5% of the total token supply, using a 0.1% daily decay function for predictable emissions.

Decay Function Example

  • Initial pool: 50,000,000 PRAI
  • Day 1 reward: 0.1% × 50,000,000 = 50,000 PRAI
  • After 15 days: Remaining pool = 49,250,000 PRAI
  • Day 16 reward: 0.1% × 49,250,000 = 49,250 PRAI

b. Real-Time Rewards (50% of Ecosystem Fees)

Distributed immediately based on node weight.

Example Calculation

  • Privanetix Node 1: Tier 1, 90% uptime → Weight = 1.8
  • Privanetix Node 2: Tier 2, 100% uptime → Weight = 1.5
  • Total Weight = 3.3

Base Rewards (50,000 PRAI):

  • Node 1: (1.8 / 3.3) × 50,000 = 27,272.7 PRAI
  • Node 2: (1.5 / 3.3) × 50,000 = 22,727.3 PRAI

Real-Time Rewards (10,000 PRAI):

  • Node 1: (1.8 / 3.3) × 10,000 = 5,454.54 PRAI
  • Node 2: (1.5 / 3.3) × 10,000 = 4,545.46 PRAI

1.2 PoS Reward Pool

1.2.1 PoS Reward Pool (5% of Total Token Supply)

Rewards are distributed based on staked tokens, node tier, and uptime percentage:

Delegation Weight = Tier Coefficient × Uptime Percentage × Total Delegated Tokens

Stakers receive rewards after deducting the node’s commission fee:

Staker Reward = Allocated Amount × (100% - Commission Rate)

Ecosystem Fee Allocation

  • 50% → Real-time PoW rewards
  • 35% → PoW & PoS pool replenishment
  • 8% → Protocol development

1.2.2 PoS Unlocking Mechanism

  • Unlocked tokens are released at the start of the next phase.
  • Tokens in the unlocking phase still earn rewards until release.

1.2.3 PoS Rewards

Commission Revenue Example:

  • A node with 1,000,000 PRAI staked and 5% commission
    → earns 5,000 PRAI from a 100,000 PRAI reward pool

Self-Staking Rewards:

  • Operators staking their own tokens avoid commission fees

Total Node Rewards:

Total Rewards = PoW + Commission + Self-Staking

Example:

  • PoW: 27,272.7 + 5,454.54 = 32,727.24 PRAI
  • Commission: 5,000 PRAI
  • Self-Staking: 10,000 PRAI
  • Total: 47,727.24 PRAI

1.2.4 PoS Reward Mechanism

APY Structure:

APY = Base APY + (Tier Coefficient × Uptime Percentage × Bonus Multiplier)

Fixed APY Phase (First 6 Months):

  • Base APY = 10%
  • Bonus Multiplier = 5%

Dynamic APY Phase:

  • Base APY adjusts based on emissions and staked tokens

Dynamic APY Formula:

Base APY = E / (Total Delegated Tokens + (½) ∑ (Tier Coefficient × Uptime × Delegated Tokens))

1.3 Summary

Privanetix nodes earn rewards through:

  • PoW Rewards:
    Base rewards (decaying pool) + real-time task fees
  • PoS Commission:
    Proportional to staked tokens and node performance
  • Self-Staking:
    Full rewards for self-delegated tokens

This structure incentivizes high performance, aligns with ecosystem growth, and ensures sustainable scalability.
