Thanks for the report @CPG_Stewards could you please elaborate on the validator revenue projection mentioned here
In a separate post co-authored by @LuukDAO, validator rewards are stated as approximately 109 cUSD/day per node.
Assuming 5 elected nodes over ~6 months, this would imply gross rewards on the order of:
109 cUSD × 5 nodes × ~180 days ≈ 98,000 cUSD
Given that, the ~$12k figure appears to represent ~12% of gross rewards.
Could you clarify:
- What assumptions are being made here (e.g. election uptime, commission structure, operational costs)?
- Whether the projection is net of costs, and if so, what the major cost drivers are?
- Why economies of scale don’t materially reduce overhead at this validator size?
This clarification would be helpful for understanding validator economics and treasury expectations going forward.
