PIVX Masternodes 🚀

What is a Masternode?

A Masternode is a special server in the PIVX network that helps process transactions, secure the blockchain, and gives its owner 1 vote in the DAO for governance decisions. To run a Masternode, you must lock 10,000 PIVX as collateral. In return, you earn continuous rewards in PIVX.

Formula 1 (Annual Percentage Return – APR):
APR = (Total yearly rewards per MN ÷ 10,000) × 100%
Since the network produces 1410 blocks per day × 6 PIVX = 8,460 PIVX/day, these rewards are shared equally among all Masternodes (N). Example: If there are 2000 Masternodes, each one gets 8460 ÷ 2000 = 4.23 PIVX/day.

Formula 2 (Time between payouts):
Days between payouts = N ÷ 1410
Masternodes are paid one after another in sequence, so the higher the total number (N), the longer the waiting time until your turn comes again.

How to run a Masternode?

Acquire and lock 10,000 PIVX as collateral in your wallet.
Set up a VPS server (or use a service like Allnodes for simplicity).
Install and configure the PIVX wallet with Masternode settings.
Start your Masternode from your local wallet.
From now on, your Masternode will secure the network and earn rewards automatically.
