These regulations encourage compliance with standards that mitigate risks and foster trust in digital assets.

Validators are selected according to their staked tokens and produce blocks in epochs, with micro blocks and macro blocks used to structure block production and validator set updates. |
Incentive Mechanisms and Applicable Fees | Transaction fees on Nimiq are paid in the native token and are distributed to validators as part of their rewards. Validators and delegators earn staking rewards proportional to their stake and participation in the network. Fees and rewards are designed to support validator incentives and network operation. |
