Mining Reward refers to the cryptocurrency given to miners as compensation for validating transactions and adding blocks to a blockchain. It incentivizes miners to secure and maintain the network.

How Mining Reward Works

In proof-of-work (PoW) systems, miners are rewarded with newly minted coins and transaction fees once they successfully add a block to the blockchain. The reward amount typically decreases over time, such as in Bitcoin’s halving events.

Importance of Mining Rewards

Mining rewards serve as a key motivator for miners to continue supporting the network. These rewards ensure that the blockchain remains secure, decentralized, and operational.
