Abstract #

This PIP proposes modifying the block reward distribution mechanism to split rewards between Validators and the Pactus Foundation.

Motivation #

To enhance the sustainability and trust in the Pactus economy, this proposal merges the existing “Foundation” and “Team & Operations” funds into the Treasury account and modifies the block reward mechanism. Moving forward, rewards will be split between Validators and the treasury, according to a fixed ratio:

70% to Validators
30% to the Pactus Foundation

Specification #

This proposal requires that PIP-39 — Batch Transfer — be adopted and enabled. With Batch Transfer support, block rewards can be split automatically between the Validator and the Foundation in a single transaction.

The new reward distribution will follow this ratio:

0.7 to the Validator (proposer of the block)
0.3 to the Foundation addresses.

Additionally, the balances of the existing Foundation and Team & Operations accounts will be merged into the Treasury account as follows:

Foundation Address: pc1z2r0fmu8sg2ffa0tgrr08gnefcxl2kq7wvquf8z

Balance: 8,400,000.194910010
Team & Operations Address: pc1znn2qxsugfrt7j4608zvtnxf8dnz8skrxguyf45

Balance: 3,779,999.999010000

Foundation Address #

The Pactus Foundation addresses are defined as follows:

<TBD: 100 addresses> Activation

This PIP will be activated at block height yyy. The transactions that transfer the existing funds to the Foundation addresses will be committed at block height xxxx.
