Glossary
Reward
: Any balance denominated in ETH that is sent to Smooth. Rewards are detected by the oracle and shared fairly among all the participants in the pool. The oracle will detect all types of rewards and distribute them fairly. All rewards are denominated in ETH
and other types of tokens such as ERC20 are not considered by the oracle. The vast majority of rewards come from block proposals of Smooth's validators and Donations.
Pending rewards
: Pending rewards are those to be owned by the validator but not yet consolidated, rendering them unclaimable. Upon a successful block proposal by the validator, these rewards transition into the 'Accumulated rewards' category, becoming claimable. This mechanism ensures that validators can only claim rewards after contributing to the pool, guarding against cheating or exploiting the system.
Accumulated rewards
: All consolidated rewards your validator has generated, i.e. those claimed and claimable.
Claimable rewards
: Rewards ready to claim. Claimable rewards are the sum of all your accumulated rewards minus the rewards that have been claimed already. Only the withdrawal address of the validator can claim its rewards.
