Staking Rewards
ZetaChain is a delegated proof of stake blockchain. Holders of ZETA tokens can
stake their tokens by delegating to validators. Staking tokens allows holders to
participate in governance and earn rewards for securing the network. ZetaChain
uses the standard Cosmos SDK

modules.
Currently, staking rewards are comprised of transaction fees collected each block and fixed rewards coming from the emissions pool. Staking rewards are split between validators based on their voting power.
The fixed amount (9.62 ZETA) is defined in the source code (opens in a new tab) of the protocol.

You can find the emissions pool balance by querying the API:
- The emission pool is currently funded manually
- Currently, there is no inflation in the network
