Dependent on the amount of miners that are associated with your emails, some of these rules may apply to you or not. + +As of now, each person participating in the Skywire mainnet may own one DIY miner and multiple official Skyminers wrt. to being eligible for rewards. +
"A DIY miner cannot be in the same location as another DIY or official Skyminer.

+ +Based on this central rule, each whitelisted person is eligible for receiving rewards for: +* one or multiple official miners + +*and/or* + +* one DIY miner with up to 8 (eight) nodes + +
You must use the Skywire Whitelisting System to keep your submitted data up to date +
Read the Skywire whitelisting system user guide to familiarize yourself with the new system.
+
+Different locations are required due to the fact that we want to spread out the meshnet and not create built-up areas. This prevents paying people to simply run single board computers (SBC) and to require them to provide a service to the network. + +* If you are running two separate miners in the same location because you're joining the network living in the same house you still have to move one of your miners to another location. + +
Submitting miners under multiple email addresses is illegal and very likely to be detected - measures will be taken if such actions are recognized.
+ +*** + +## Rewards +
+ +* Eligible for rewards are only the whitelisted nodes, that **comply with the Skywire mainnet rules** and **meet the 75% uptime requirement** during the month. +* The whitelist is being **updated retroactively on a monthly basis** so it is **not important** in which week you are being approved for the whitelist. +* **Official Skyminers are whitelisted by default after purchase.** +* The rewards are **paid every subsequent month around the 5th** or with a short delay, depending if other things delay the process. +* The deadline to submit complaints is being published in the monthly Skywire status update emails and in the [Skywire PSA channel on Telegram](https://t.me/SkywirePSA). + +
+ +### Official Skyminers + +There are two different reward categories for official miners: +* official Skyminers first & second batch - **not sold through** the hardware store +* official Skyminers new batches - **sold through** the [hardware store](https://store.skycoin.com) + +Faulty orange pi prime's/routers of official Skyminers will be rewarded regardless of your uptime until you receive a replacement. If the replacement doesn't arrive in time for you to make the uptime requirement because it arrived on short notice or not on the schedule at all you will be rewarded as well.

Official Skyminers - First & Second Batch

We are currently revising the reward strucure for our early supporters. Details of the rewards going forward will be announced very soon.

+ +Rewards are being paid on a node by node basis. The total amount of rewards is limited by a pool size that is subject to change: +* You can receive a maximum of 12 Skycoin per node + - official Skyminer consist of seven nodes (visors) and one manager (hypervisor) +* Rewards are being calculated on a node by node basis + - you'll receive up to 7 Skycoin per-node rewards +* The total pool size is being divided evenly between all nodes eligible for receiving rewards. This implies that you will receive less than 12 Skycoin per-node rewards in case the pool size would be surpassed. + +*** + +### Official Skyminers - New Batches + +
+Fixed Skycoin payments can be claimed within three years after purchase.

+You will receive a fixed Skycoin payment per month in addition to any traffic forwarding payments
that you will receive in the Skywire mainnet.
+Fixed Skycoin payments per month = USD Miner Price / 24 = $83.30 USD.
+
+
Your fixed Skycoin payments are dependent on your the uptime of your nodes. All of your 7 nodes must meet the uptime requirement for you to receive the full $83.30 USD, it is therefore superimportant to keep your nodes online.
