Edge Token Reward Emissions

The Aethir Edge emission schedule has a maximum of 23% of the total ATH token supply (approximately 9.66 billion tokens) allocated to Edger owners over a ten-year period. As more Edge devices participate in the network, more emissions are unlocked according to the schedule, incentivizing users to contribute their computing power.

Note: All Edge rewards are subject to a 5% rewards network fee.

Tokenomics 2.0

Launch Window: Q4 2025 (Final date to be confirmed)

10–240 ATH/day (Tier-based)

Stake-to-earn model with higher potential via ATH staking

How Rewards Work in Tokenomics 2.0

Starting Q4, 2025, Aethir Edge introduces a new stake-to-earn model. Users must stake ATH tokens to participate in rewards, and higher stakes unlock higher reward tiers.

Base Tier Rewards:

Tier

Stake Requirement

Base Reward / Day

Bronze

2,000 ATH

10 ATH/day

Silver

5,000 ATH

30 ATH/day

Gold

10,000 ATH

60 ATH/day

Note: Existing Edge users will be automatically placed in the Bronze tier when Tokenomics 2.0 launches. To upgrade to higher tiers, additional ATH must be staked according to the requirements.

Bonus Reward Distribution:

  • Daily Emission Cap: 5,000,000 ATH across the network.

  • Bonus rewards are distributed after base emissions based on stake-weighted formulas:

    • Silver bonus weight: 1×

    • Gold bonus weight: 2×

Max possible daily rewards (Base rewards included):

  • Silver: up to 120 ATH/day

  • Gold: up to 240 ATH/day


Bonus Calculation Formula:

After base rewards are distributed, the remaining emission pool is allocated using the following formulas:

  • Silver Tier Reward Formula:

SilverReward = min[30 + (DailyEmission - (BronzeDevicesx10 + SilverDevicesx30 + GoldDevicesx60)) ÷ (SilverDevices + GoldDevicesx2), 120]

  • Gold Tier Reward Formula:

GoldReward = min[60 + 2 x (DailyEmission - (BronzeDevicesx10 + SilverDevicesx30 + GoldDevicesx60)) ÷ (SilverDevices + GoldDevicesx2), 240]

Please note:

All values are processed daily at 00:00 UTC. Tier changes take effect within 24 hours.

Rewards are distributed on a T+1 basis — processed daily at 00:00 UTC based on the previous day’s activity.

For example, rewards accrued on June 13 will appear in your account on June 14.


Tokenomics 2.0 is built to reward greater participation — the more you stake, the more you earn. With a tiered base model and a stake-weighted bonus formula, high-contributing Edge owners gain a clear advantage in maximizing daily rewards and shared network incentives.

During the past few months under Tokenomics 1.5, the Aethir Foundation significantly boosted daily emissions to accelerate network growth. This led to 1.49 billion ATH being distributed to Edge contributors — far exceeding the originally planned allocation of 790million ATH (based on the number of online devices). In other words, Edge device owners received hundreds of millions of additional rewards thanks to the Aethir Foundation’s supplemental contribution.

As we transition into Tokenomics 2.0, the model introduces a tiered bonus structure that continues this philosophy of rewarding contributors — with bigger stakers now gaining access to higher earning potential through Silver and Gold tiers. The more you stake, the more you earn.


What Has Changed in Tokenomics 2.0?

1. From Device Count-Based to Stake-Based Rewards

→ The previous model, which distributed rewards based on the number of devices online, is now replaced by a tiered, stake-driven structure. The flat 100 ATH/day boost has officially ended.

  1. Stake-Weighted Bonuses

→ High contributors (Gold Tier) get greater bonus weight.

  1. Capped Emissions

→ Total emissions are limited to 5 million ATH/day to ensure sustainability.
