Device Rewards & Bounty System

DePIN Device Rewards

Karrier One reserves 1.2 billion KONE to reward contributors over a 50-year period using an exponentially decaying model (3% annual reduction).

Year 1: 40.4M KONE → ~3.37M/month

How Users Earn:

• Uptime Rewards: Based on device connectivity.

• Traffic Rewards: Higher throughput = more tokens.

• Coverage Expansion: Incentives for new or underserved areas.

• QoS Bonuses: Low latency, high speed, and good user feedback.

Contribution Score Formula:

Score = (Uptime × 5%) + (Traffic × 5%) + (Users × 5%) + (QoS × 5%) + (Location Bonus × 80%)

Rewards are proportional to a user's monthly Contribution Score.

Bounty System

To accelerate strategic network growth, Karrier One operates an on-chain bounty system backed by 50% of each epoch’s reward emissions.

Features:

• Target Flexibility: Bounties can target anything from specific GPS coordinates (e.g. school rooftops) to entire underserved regions.

• Public Bounty Dashboard: Shows all open, claimed, expired, and fulfilled bounties for full transparency.

• Bonding Requirement: A small KONE bond is required to claim, and is refunded upon successful verification.

To Claim a Bounty:

1. Install a device in the specified location.

2. Register and lock your KONE bond.

3. Maintain uptime, QoS, and user engagement for 30–90 days.

4. Undergo oracle-based auditing and, if needed, community review.

The bounty vault rolls over unclaimed rewards, keeping them available until fulfilled.
