# Reward Structure

## Node Operators **Reward Structure**

Uprising Labs’ reward structure ensures that node operators receive a base allocation of tokens from the token genesis pool, covering operational costs and providing incentives for maintaining uptime. This initial allocation supports network stability and compensates operators for their commitment to the ecosystem.

### Oracle Function Rewards

In addition to this base reward, node operators can earn extra returns by supporting oracle-like functions, such as generating random numbers or pulling trusted third-party data for on-chain use. These functions offer additional revenue streams as the network grows.

### NFT Rewards

Node operators also earn a share of NFT minting costs and royalties on future sales of NFTs created through the Uprising rewards platform. When players mint special reward NFTs using Uprising Points and tokens, operators benefit from both minting fees and resale royalties, recognizing their ongoing role in Uprising’s ecosystem.&#x20;

Node functions will be rolled out in phases, beginning with guaranteed uptime rewards.

### **Summary**

* **Token Genesis Pool Allocation**: Guaranteed tokens for node operation and uptime incentives.
* **Additional Rewards**: Earn from oracle-like functions, including RNG and third-party data access.
* **NFT Royalties**: Receive a share of Uprising rewards platform NFT minting costs and resale royalties.
* **Phased Rollout**: Functions and rewards will expand, beginning with uptime incentives.
