Your rewards are calculated based on your share of the total staking pool. The more $PEPU you stake, the higher your % of the pool. **New stakes are subject to a 7 day lock**.<br>

* Per block: 6.34 $PEPU total is distributed
* Your portion: Based on your % of the pool
* Rewards are dynamic and will adjust over time
* Monthly Estimate: (Annual % / 12)
* Daily Estimate: (Annual % / 365)

This model ensures sustainability and fairness as the network grows.<br>
