When do I start receiving Tezos rewards?

Enjoy our first light-weight post of Eli5 series covering a reward distribution in Tezos blockchain in the form of comic-strip style story.

John has some Tezos tokens and wants to receive rewards. He takes them to a baker*, P2P Validator.

John makes an agreement to delegate his tokens to P2P Validator and becomes a delegator.

The tokens remain in John’s wallet, but the staking balance of P2P Validator increases.

P2P Validator bakes John’s tokens for 7 cycles (typically 21 days).

After 7 cycles John can see on P2P Dashboard by how much his tokens have grown.

It worked! John started getting rewards on his delegator address as soon the 7th cycle was completed (typically 21-23 day). The delegating process continues afresh and compounds automatically, so John’s reward tokens work with his original stake to increase his rewards in the next cycle.

P2P Validator receives 9.95% validator fee and uses it to pay for:

  • server time & running costs
  • building better infrastructure
  • 24/7 technical support

P2P Validator is part of a tezos network, which is a decentralised one. There are many validators (bakers) in the network and each one makes their own decision on what fees to charge. If a fee is too low there is a risk to the baking process. We believe in charging a fair fee for a good service. Choose P2P Validator and get:

  • First reward 40% faster
  • Efficiency 101.18%
  • Payout accuracity AAA+
  • Baking Bad rewards insurance

In our next story you will learn how to redelegate (change a baker) and how to stop the delegation.
