Nillion (@nillion): Blacklight nodes are incentivized to verify private computation on the Blind Computer.

Blacklight nodes are incentivized to verify private computation on the Blind Computer. To participate, nodes stake a minimum of 70,000 $NIL on Nillion’s Ethereum L2 and are assigned verification tasks by the network. Nodes with higher stake are eligible to take on more verification tasks and earn a larger share of rewards as tasks are completed. Rewards are funded by 0.5% annual inflation of the total NIL supply and distributed to nodes that successfully complete assigned verification tasks. Because annual issuance is fixed relative to total supply, returns depend on the total NIL staked across Blacklight nodes. As total stake increases, rewards are distributed across a broader base. For example, with a total supply of 1 billion NIL: - If 15M NIL is staked, estimated APY is ~33% - If 50M NIL is staked, estimated APY is ~10% Over time, Blacklight verification is expected to be supplemented by developers deploying private workloads, directly tying verification rewards to real network usage.
