Additional Revenue

In a mining environment that is getting more competitive and institutional, it is important to leverage your mining balance sheet to maintain or increase your profitability. Horizen’s Zen Nodes offer miners and other stakeholders another means of generating revenue.

There are approximately 360 ZEN per day available to pay each class of node. That is split proportionally among all qualifying nodes according to their uptime.

Payments are made in ZEN directly to the stake address. There is no assumption made about the fiat value of ZEN.

Horizen’s Zen Nodes add services, resilience, and availability to the Horizen network.
