Staking Guide

How Shekyl staker rewards are designed, why claims are used instead of direct coinbase fan-out, and how rollout is phased for safe activation.

Core Decision

Claim-Based Reward Disbursement

Shekyl uses a claim-based model for staker rewards rather than direct coinbase fan-out. Rewards accrue to a deterministic accounting pool, then eligible stakers claim with explicit transactions.

Why Claim-Based

Keeps coinbase transactions compact and deterministic

Avoids variable-size miner transaction growth tied to staker-set size

Decouples payout cadence from block template construction

Improves compatibility during hardfork rollout

Economic Flow

Per-Block Accounting

Consensus computes staker emission share plus staker fee-pool allocation from adaptive burn components.

Accrual Pool

Computed reward amounts accrue to a global staker reward accounting pool.

Claim by Eligible Stakers

Eligible staked outputs claim accrued rewards using explicit claim transactions.

Implementation Phasing

HF1 Baseline

  • • Track `stake_ratio`
  • • Compute emission and burn splits
  • • Defer live claim transaction grammar to follow-up activation

Claim Activation Hardfork

  • • Add claim transaction/output grammar
  • • Add accrual and claim validation paths
  • • Expose wallet RPC for claim estimation and submission

Operator Notes

No immediate coinbase format change is required for HF1. Reward accounting metrics should be exposed in node RPC before claim activation so economics can be validated in production conditions.
