# Reward Distribution Example ## Scenario: Block Reward = 50 RIN (49 RIN after 1% pool fee) ### Miners Connected: 1. **Miner A**: `rin1qahvvv9d5f3443wtckeqavwp9950wacxfmwv20q.worker1` (30 difficulty) 2. **Miner B**: `user.worker2` (20 difficulty) - No address specified 3. **Miner C**: `rin1qxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.worker3` (50 difficulty) - **INVALID ADDRESS** ### Total Difficulty: 100 ### Reward Distribution: #### **Step 1: Calculate Individual Shares** - **Miner A**: (30/100) × 49 = **14.7 RIN** → `rin1qahvvv9d5f3443wtckeqavwp9950wacxfmwv20q` - **Miner B**: (20/100) × 49 = **9.8 RIN** → **Pool address** (no valid address) - **Miner C**: (50/100) × 49 = **24.5 RIN** → **Pool address** (invalid address) #### **Step 2: Final Distribution** - **Pool Address**: 1 RIN (fee) + 9.8 RIN (from Miner B) + 24.5 RIN (from Miner C) = **35.3 RIN** - **Miner A**: **14.7 RIN** ### Pool Logs: ``` [127.0.0.1] ✅ Authorized: miner_rin1qah.worker1 -> rin1qahvvv9d5f3443wtckeqavwp9950wacxfmwv20q [127.0.0.1] ⚠️ Authorized: user.worker2 (rewards will go to pool address) [127.0.0.1] ❌ Invalid RinCoin address: rin1qxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 💰 Miner rin1qahvvv9d5f3443wtckeqavwp9950wacxfmwv20q: 14.70000000 RIN (30 difficulty) ⚠️ Miner without address: 20 difficulty -> 9.80000000 RIN to pool ⚠️ Miner without address: 50 difficulty -> 24.50000000 RIN to pool 💰 Pool keeps 34.30000000 RIN from miners without addresses 📊 Summary: 1 miners with addresses, 2 without (rewards to pool) ``` ### Key Points: - ✅ **Miners with valid addresses**: Get their full share - ⚠️ **Miners without addresses**: Contribute to difficulty but rewards go to pool - ❌ **Miners with invalid addresses**: Rejected at connection time - 💰 **Pool benefits**: Gets additional rewards from careless miners - 📊 **Transparent**: All distributions clearly logged
