Validator Rewards
Compensation earned by Proof of Stake validators for proposing and attesting to blocks. Rewards come from newly issued tokens (inflation) and transaction fees. Ethereum validators earn approximately 3-5% APR on staked ETH, varying with network participation. Validators risk slashing penalties for misbehavior.
