A weighted credit unit used in Solana's validator reward calculation regime. Points represent the product of a validator's vote credits and its active stake, determining its proportional share of the epoch's inflation rewards. Validators with more stake and more vote credits accumulate more points, translating to higher absolute rewards distributed at epoch boundaries.

Point (Validator Rewards) (point) Categoría: Blockchain General Definición: A weighted credit unit used in Solana's validator reward calculation regime. Points represent the product of a validator's vote credits and its active stake, determining its proportional share of the epoch's inflation rewards. Validators with more stake and more vote credits accumulate more points, translating to higher absolute rewards distributed at epoch boundaries. Relacionados: Vote Credit, Staking Rewards, Validador

A reward tally credited to a validator's vote account each time one of its votes reaches the root (becomes finalized). Vote credits accumulate throughout an epoch and are used at epoch boundaries to calculate staking rewards — validators with more credits earn proportionally more rewards for themselves and their delegators. Credits incentivize consistent, timely voting.
SOL earned by validators and their delegators each epoch as compensation for participating in consensus and securing the network, funded by protocol inflation rather than solely transaction fees. Rewards are proportional to a validator's active stake and are credited at the end of each epoch to stake accounts automatically; the effective APY depends on the current inflation rate, the percentage of total SOL staked, and the validator's commission rate. Validators set a commission (0–100%) representing the fraction of rewards they keep before passing the remainder to delegators.
A node that participates in the Solana network by validating transactions, voting on blocks, and (when selected as leader) producing new blocks. Validators run the Agave, Firedancer, or Jito client software, require significant hardware (128+ GB RAM, high-core CPU, NVMe SSD), and earn rewards from inflation and transaction fees.

The financial model governing validator profitability including staking rewards (inflation), transaction fee revenue, MEV tips, and operational costs (hardware, bandwidth, data center). On Solana, validators earn ~6-7% APY from inflation plus priority fees and Jito MEV tips, offset by costs of running high-spec hardware.

A distributed, append-only ledger that records transactions in cryptographically linked blocks. Each block contains a hash of the previous block, forming an immutable chain. Nodes in the network maintain copies of the ledger and reach agreement through consensus mechanisms. Blockchains enable trustless, decentralized record-keeping without a central authority.
The protocol by which nodes in a distributed network agree on the current state of the ledger. Common mechanisms include Proof of Work (Bitcoin), Proof of Stake (Ethereum, Solana), and BFT variants. Consensus ensures all honest nodes converge on the same transaction history despite potential network delays or malicious actors.
A consensus mechanism where validators are selected to produce blocks based on the amount of cryptocurrency they have staked (locked) as collateral. PoS is energy-efficient compared to Proof of Work. Misbehaving validators risk losing their stake (slashing). Solana, Ethereum (post-Merge), Cosmos, and Cardano use PoS variants.
A consensus mechanism where miners compete to solve computationally expensive puzzles to produce blocks and earn rewards. PoW provides strong security (51% attack resistance) but is energy-intensive. Bitcoin and pre-Merge Ethereum use PoW. The difficulty adjusts to maintain target block times regardless of total network hash power.
