When the staker pool receives a distribution, it’s divided purely by stake weight.

​
The formula

your reward = distribution_amount × (your_stake / total_staked)
Every active staker is credited their fraction of the pool, in proportion to how much $SGL they have staked at the moment of the distribution.

​
Worked example

Suppose 1,000 USDC is distributed while 2,000,000 $SGL is staked network-wide:
  • Each staked $SGL earns 1,000 / 2,000,000 = 0.0005 USDC
  • A 100,000 $SGL position (5% of the pool) earns 50 USDC
  • A 500 $SGL position earns 0.25 USDC
The identical math runs separately for SGLdistributions,againsttheSGL distributions, against the SGL accumulator.

​
Tier-agnostic

Your role doesn’t change your rate. A Yield position and a Validator position of the same size earn exactly the same from any distribution. Tiers differ only in minimum stake, cooldown, and slashing exposure — never in reward share. (See Choosing a Tier.)

​
Fairness guarantees

These rules are enforced by the program, not by policy:
  • Only active positions earn. The instant you unstake, the position stops accruing new rewards — but everything already accrued is locked in and stays claimable.
  • No retroactive rewards. You only earn from distributions made after you staked. Stake right after a distribution and you get nothing from it.
  • No dilution of existing stakers. A newcomer’s stake only affects how future distributions are split. It can never claw back rewards already owed to people who staked earlier.
  • Empty pool can’t be funded. A distribution can’t be made when nothing is staked.
Timing of stake vs distribution is the only thing that matters — not how long you’ve held, and not your tier. Stake before a distribution to share in it.
