One thing I’ve noticed when talking to TRON voters is that many don’t realize
there are actually two different reward layers involved when voting for an SR.
The base TRON network reward (protocol-level).
The redistribution policy set by each SR.
These two are often mixed up, which leads to confusion about payouts,
percentages, and expectations.
Understanding the difference helps voters evaluate SRs more clearly
and avoid misunderstandings.
Curious if others here noticed the same confusion among voters.
Imagine the TRON network produces 100 TRX in rewards for a voting period.
The TRON network reward:
This 100 TRX is generated by the TRON protocol itself.
It goes to the SR based on block production and votes.
This part is fixed by the network and the voter cannot change it.
The SR redistribution policy:
Each SR then decides how much of that 100 TRX is shared back to voters.
For example:
SR A shares 90 TRX with voters and keeps 10 TRX.
SR B shares 50 TRX with voters and keeps 50 TRX.
Both voters received the same network reward indirectly,
but the final payout depends on the SR’s redistribution policy.
This is why two SRs with similar votes can result in very different voter payouts.
okay, its clear, but i do know of two reward after staking.
the vote reward that comes when staker vote SR, which the reward from different SR do varies.
reward from resources sales( energy and bandwidth rentals) at different markeplace. example @TronEnergize .com, which reward varies on deman, and the markeplace
You’re right — after staking, there can also be additional returns from
resource rentals (energy and bandwidth), depending on how the staker
uses or leases those resources and which marketplace is used.
In this thread, I was focusing only on the SR voting reward path,
because many voters confuse the protocol reward with the SR’s
redistribution policy.
Resource rental rewards are another layer entirely and add more
variables for stakers beyond voting.
