Introduction
2025 marks a landmark year for Algorand! After years of rewarding governance participation, the network is entering a new era—real-time staking rewards. This paradigm shift strengthens Algorand’s decentralization, rewards continuous network participation, and sets new standards for inclusivity and flexibility in staking. As a top validator, Snow Fall—with our RETI pooling validator ranked #4—is proud to bring these cutting-edge staking rewards to our community.
Whether you’re an Algorand veteran or new to the ecosystem, understanding these changes is key to maximizing your ALGO’s earning potential. Discover how Snow Fall, through its robust infrastructure and advanced validator service, can be your gateway to the new staking era.
What’s New: Algorand’s Inclusive Staking Rewards
In January 2025, the Algorand Foundation rolled out what’s being called crypto’s most inclusive staking rewards program[[2]][[3]]. Here are the highlights:
- Real-time rewards:Â Block rewards are now paid instantly to validators that successfully propose blocks. Rewards start at 10 ALGO per block and decrease by 1% every millionth block.
- No slashing, no lockup: Unlike Ethereum or Solana, Algorand staking involves no risk of slashing and keeps your tokens fully liquid—no restrictive lockups, ever[[2]].
- Shared fees:Â Validators earn 50% of the transaction fees from every block they propose.
- Non-inflationary model:Â Staking rewards do not increase the total ALGO supply, maintaining token economics stability.
- Security and simplicity: Advanced cryptography keeps your funds safe. There’s no need to delegate your coins to a third party or risk penalty-based staking[[2]].
How Does the Transition Work?
2025 is a transition year for Algorand, moving from governance rewards (earned through voting in periodic cycles) to continuous staking rewards tied directly to securing the network. This shift is designed to:
- Foster continuous participation
- Enhance decentralization and resilience
- Offer flexible options: run a node, join liquid staking, or use trusted validators like Snow Fall[[4]]
If you staked ALGO via services that no longer support the new rewards (like Kraken or Bitstamp), you can transition seamlessly with Snow Fall and continue earning from day one[[1]][[5]].
