Split alpha_out (owner / miners / validators)

📘

Where we are — step 3 of the emission flow

How we got here:

  1. TAO emission — TAO split across subnets.
  2. Alpha emission — each subnet mints alpha_in + alpha_out.

This page (step 3): split the 1 α/block of alpha_out among the subnet owner, miners, and validators.

This page shows how a subnet's alpha_out is divided among participants, then points to the rest of the flow.

The alpha_out split (1 α/block)

  • Subnet owners receive 18% of subnet emission.
  • Miners receive 41% of emissions.
  • Validators receive 41% of emissions — which is then further divided amongst their stakeholders (steps 4–6).

What's next

Step 4 — Parent / child hotkeys: aggregate each validator's dividends across its parent and child hotkeys. Then:

  • Step 5: Root vs alpha split — divide the validator's dividends into root and alpha proportions.
  • Step 6: award stakeholder rewards — root and alpha.
