Q2 2026 Rewards Allocation
Framework

Summary

This governance proposal (DGP-12) establishes the official rewards distribution schedule for the Destra Network ecosystem during Q2 2026 (April 1 – June 30, 2026). A total of 25,000,000 DSYNC tokens will be drawn from the Community Reserve and distributed across five key stakeholder groups that power the Destra infrastructure.

Motivation

Destra Network's continued expansion of its GPU computing infrastructure, AI workload capacity, and decentralized cloud solutions requires a structured incentive model. Following the successful passage of DGP-9 (Q4 2025) and DGP-11 (Q1 2026), this proposal continues the quarterly allocation cadence to maintain network growth momentum.

The Q1 2026 allocation resulted in a 41% increase in active GPU nodes (from 4,200 to 5,927) and a 29% increase in staking participation. This proposal aims to sustain and accelerate that growth.

Specification

If passed, the following distribution shall be executed from the Community Reserve wallet within 7 days of proposal finalization:

• GPU Node Operators (35% · 8,750,000 DSYNC): Distributed proportionally to active GPU/TPU node operators based on uptime, bandwidth contribution, and Proof-of-Sync scores over the quarter.
• DSYNC Staking Rewards (30% · 7,500,000 DSYNC): Distributed to all stakers in the official staking contract as additional DSYNC yield, supplementing the existing ETH-denominated rewards.
• Community Development Fund (15% · 3,750,000 DSYNC): Allocated to the Sentient DAO treasury for ecosystem grants, developer tooling, open-source contributions, and DePIN integrations.
• Marketing & Strategic Partnerships (12% · 3,000,000 DSYNC): Reserved for exchange listings, partnership integrations (DePIN protocols, AI platforms), community campaigns, and content initiatives.
• Core Contributors (8% · 2,000,000 DSYNC): Quarterly vesting disbursement to protocol engineers, researchers, and operational team members per the existing contributor compensation framework.

Execution Details

Distribution will be executed via the Destra Governance Multisig (0xf94e...91cc), requiring 4-of-7 signatories. GPU and staking rewards will be distributed automatically on-chain. DAO treasury and marketing allocations will be time-locked in a 90-day Gnosis Safe.
