Limits & Rules
Rules suck, but believe us - sometimes they make things better
Limits, Rules & Maturity
For a healthy and sustainable node, WFN V2 follows a set of strict rules and operational limits. Understanding these will help you manage your expectations for reward distribution
1. The 1000-Block Maturity Rule
What is it? A lease is only considered "mature" and eligible for rewards after it has been active for 1000 blocks (approx. 17 hours)
Why? This rule prevents "reward jumping" (where users lease just before a block is mined and unlease immediately after). It ensures that only long-term stakers who contribute to the node's security are rewarded
Continuous Leases: If you cancel an old lease and start a new one in the same block, the system is smart enough to detect this as a "continuous lease." You won't lose your maturity, and you'll continue earning rewards based on the minimum amount between the old and new lease.
2. Payment Intervals & Limits
When setting your preferences, you must stay within these bounds:
Minimum Interval:
Example: Setting 100 blocks means you'll receive rewards roughly every 1.7 hours
Maximum Interval:
Example: Setting 10,000 blocks means you'll receive rewards roughly every 7 days.
Default: Users without a set interval are paid weekly
3. Node Fees (Commission)
Node fees are deducted before rewards are proportionalized.
WAVES: 10%
LP Tokens: 10%
UNIT Tokens: 10%
These are the standard fees. They may vary based on specific node configurations or promotions
4. Minimum Payouts
To save on network fees, the system enforces a minimum payout:
WAVES: 1 wavelet (0.00000001 WAVES)
Token Swaps: If your reward is so small that a swap cannot be executed, it will be held until your balance grows or paid out in the original token
5. Security & 2FA
Every payment transaction in WFN V2 is secured by a Multi-Signature (2FA) process. Two different administrator keys must sign off on every payout, ensuring that your rewards are always safe and correctly processed
