🛡️Sentinel SRB

Learn how Sentinel staking rewards are calculated. DVPNSRB uses the Cosmos SDK formula with annual provisions, fees, community tax, and staked DVPN tokens.

DVPNSRB is a benchmark representing the mean, annualized staking rate across all active Sentinel validators.

DVPNSRB is calculated and published by Staking Rewards via the Sentinel Profile and Data API.

TL;DR: Sentinel staking rewards follow the Cosmos SDK formula (ATOMSRB): annual provisions plus annualized fees, minus community tax, divided by total staked DVPN tokens. Validator-level rates factor in performance and commission.

The calculations are derived from the ATOMSRB documentation, serving as the foundational reference to ensure the accuracy of relevant metrics.

DVPN Validator Staking Rewards Rate: DVPNSRB(v)

Staking Rewards calculates the DVPNSRB for each validator based on their individual performance and commission rate.

$$DVPNSRB(v) = ATOMSRB(v)$$

DVPN Real Reward Rate: DVPNSRB^R

The real reward rate calculates the DVPNSRB adjusted for inflation in the network.

$$DVPNSRB^R = ATOMSRB^R$$

Inflation Rate Behavior

• Sentinel inflation operates on a structured 6-month epoch system, with the inflation rate decreasing by 6% per epoch, similar to a halving mechanism. Starting with a 49% annual inflation at genesis, this rate continues to decrease until reaching a steady 13% annual inflation. Afterward, a per-block decay model will reduce inflation progressively toward zero, capping the supply at 48 billion tokens.

Other Sentinel metrics calculated by Staking Rewards

Metric	Description
Delegated Tokens	The number of tokens delegated to validators.
Self Staked Tokens	The number of tokens staked by validators directly.
Staking Wallets	This metric refers to the total quantity of distinct delegations made. It doesn't distinguish based on unique delegator addresses and excludes considerations of any minimum delegation thresholds.
