EOS Network has unveiled a groundbreaking initiative today with the launch of a 250 million EOS staking rewards program, marking a pivotal move in its updated tokenomics strategy. This revamped program aims to attract early adopters with an enticing initial annual percentage yield (APY) exceeding 60%, offering substantial incentives for participation.
Under the new framework, daily 85,600 EOS tokens will be allocated to stakers, amounting to over 31 million EOS tokens annually. Notably, the staking process has been enhanced with an extended lock-up period, now spanning 21 days instead of four. This adjustment seeks to foster long-term commitment and stability within the network.
EOS Block Producers (BPs) stand to benefit significantly from these changes as well. In addition to their block rewards, BPs will now receive network-generated fees, enhancing their overall earnings and further incentivizing their crucial role in maintaining network infrastructure.
This strategic overhaul underscores EOS’s commitment to sustainability and ecosystem growth, providing sustainable rewards to participants while bolstering network reliability amidst increasing demand.
The program invites stakeholders to participate actively through stake.eosnetwork.com, aiming to forge a robust and vibrant community around the EOS blockchain.
In late May, The EOS Network Foundation, led by CEO Yves La Rose, made a crucial decision to limit the total supply of EOS tokens to 2.1 billion, slashing the originally intended 10 billion. This move involves burning approximately 80% of future emissions and establishing a permanent cap on token numbers.
