Epochs & Payouts
Fees accrue for an epoch, balances are snapshotted when it ends, and ORBIO is sent to wallets automatically.

Same boundary for every coin
The cycle#
- 1
Fees accrue
During the epoch, 70% of every fee on a coin collects in that coin's pot. Coin pages show it as Accruing this epoch. - 2
Snapshot
When the epoch ends, balances are snapshotted and ranks are fixed. Top-N coins pay only the ranks inside the cutoff. - 3
Distribution
The pot is sent to each paid wallet, pro-rata to balance. The ORBIO pool is paid out to ORBIT holders at the same time.
Nothing to claim#
Payouts go straight to wallets. There is no claim button and nothing to stake.
Sell before the snapshot, miss the payout
Only balances at the end of the epoch count. A wallet that sells before then is not in that epoch's distribution.
One clock#
Every coin shares the same epoch boundary, every 10 minutes. The countdown in Explore, on coin pages and in Rewards is the same clock.
Note
In this build the countdown is the only live part of the cycle: no balances are snapshotted and no payout is sent when it reaches zero. See How This Build Works.
