Revenue Sharing
Hosts earn SOL on every verifiable compute cycle their node executes. Protocol fee is 0.4%. Settlement is per epoch, direct to your wallet — no off-ramp.
How payouts work
When a renter pays for an inference job, the network attests the cycle on-chain and splits the payment immediately:
- ~93% → host (you)
- ~5% → validators (cycle attestation)
- ~2% → protocol fee (treasury / ecosystem)
Exact splits float by network demand. The dashboard shows your effective take-rate per epoch.
Settlement cadence
Earnings are paid out every Solana epoch (~2 days, but routing-fee dribbles settle within minutes). No batching, no off-ramps, no minimum withdrawal.

What gets you more revenue
- Uptime — the routing engine prefers nodes with >99% online history
- Latency — lower p95 latency = more job priority
- Specs — H100 / A100 / RTX 5090 tier picks up larger LLM jobs; consumer cards (4090, 3090) for diffusion workloads
- Region coverage — gaps in EU/Asia coverage pay 15-30% premium
What you risk
$GPU. Validators sample your work — re-execute random cycles and check signatures. If you claim work that didn't happen, or your output diverges from re-execution within tolerance, your bond gets slashed proportional to the dispute.
In practice — slashing only catches actual fraud. Hardware failures, network drops, or graceful node retirement don't get slashed; the bond is refunded.
Tax / off-ramp
VouchGPU pays in SOL directly to your wallet. Tax treatment is your responsibility — we don't issue 1099s, don't KYC hosts, and don't have visibility into your fiat off-ramp. Tools like CoinTracker / Koinly can ingest your wallet history.
