Hotspot rewards after the halving

What the halving does to one Hotspot, in HNT. You enter the figures; nothing is looked up and nothing is stored.

Hotspot rewards after the halving

Enter what a Hotspot earned in the last 30 days. The part paid from the HIP-20 schedule halves on 1 August 2027; nothing else is assumed and no price is used.

Same Hotspot, same data, after the halving≈ 5 HNT / month

100 % means every reward comes from the schedule. Under HIP-149 a deployer's rewards also include re-emitted burned HNT and a minimum top-up funded by burns; those parts do not follow the halving and cannot be known in advance, so lower the percentage if you know your split.

What the result means

The halving changes one thing: the HNT the HIP-20 schedule mints per day. Every reward pool is a fixed percentage of that mint, so each pool gets half as much scheduled HNT.

Two other sources feed rewards and are not halved: burned HNT that is re-emitted up to the net-emissions cap, and, under HIP-149, a top-up for Mobile data deployers that is capped at the HNT recently burned.

How large those parts are for one Hotspot depends on network use at that time. That is why the calculator asks for the share and does not guess it.

Questions and answers

Do Hotspot rewards halve at the halving?

The HNT that comes from the HIP-20 schedule halves: the schedule falls from 7,500,000 to 3,750,000 HNT per year on 1 August 2027. Rewards funded by re-emitted burned HNT and by the HIP-149 minimum top-up are not part of the schedule and do not halve.

Are Hotspots still paid for Proof-of-Coverage?

HIP-149 retires Proof-of-Coverage on both the Mobile and the IoT network. Mobile deployers are paid for the data they deliver; IoT data transfer continues at the fixed Data Credit price.

Does the calculator predict my income in dollars?

No. It works in HNT only and uses no price. What a reward is worth in dollars after the halving depends on the HNT price then, which nobody knows.

Where do I find my Hotspot's last 30 days?

In the wallet or explorer app you use for the Hotspot. This site has no Hotspot lookup, because we found no public reward source we could verify.
