Networks
What is a Network?
Networks are at the heart of the Decentralized Infrastructure Marketplace (DIM). They define reward parameters to meet their needs for growth, operational hardware, and/or liquidity. Networks configure key settings, such as reward distribution for Delegators, Operators, and other participants, and can establish penalty mechanisms. Network rewards are distributed through a native minting mechanism, creating an opportunity to build a new DeFi foundation by consolidating all needs and incentives in one place.
