Node owners will be able to earn Action Points by participating in certain action items. This is called Proof of Action, which recognizes contribution and energy usage tied to a given blockchain. The Rewards page of your Switch Web App is where you will see a breakdown of the Action Points completed by your individual nodes.
Action Points are not Switch Rewards. The points you earn, however, do determine the amount of Switch Rewards you will receive once distribution happens. This is not a 1:1 exchange ratio of Action Points to Switch Rewards. Your Switch Reward distribution is determined as a % of the Action Points you earned vs the total number of Action Points earned by all participants during that distribution period. Beginning in October 2022, node owners were first able to see the Action Points in their Rewards dashboard. Beginning in mid to late 2024, your anticipated Switch Rewards became visible. These are steps in the process of distribution. The Action Points and Switch Rewards are currently only visible as what has been earned up to this point and updates daily according to the formula.
The first Action Item to be rewarded is running your node for a minimum of 6 hours per day. This began on February 25, 2022, and the points have been accumulating since then. The second Action Item which will be rewarded is referrals. This is expected to begin in late 2022 or early 2023 and will not be retroactive prior to that date. In order to receive the Action Items from a referral, the referrer’s unique referral code will need to be used by the referee at the point of purchase.
Other future Action Items will be based on activities involving the use of the trading platform within the Switch App, purchases made on the Switch Black Card, and referrals of the Switch Black Card. Again, this announcement, seeing Action Points and Switch Rewards in the dashboard, is a step in the process toward Rewards Distribution. A full breakdown of Action Items and the distribution formula can be seen in the Switch Litepaper
