I went into Dusk reward split because I wanted to understand what actually happens to the rewards behind the headline APY.

And honestly, I ended up paying more attention to the timing and split than the APY itself.

So I started following the reward flow.

What I found surprised me a little.

Block generators get 70% as a base reward, with up to another 10% depending on the credits included in the certificate. Provisioners, who are actually taking part in the voting and attestation side, get the remaining share.

And then there's the part I had to read twice:

If some of that reward isn't distributed, it can be burned instead of going to voters.

So when I first saw “generators + provisioners share the rewards,” I pictured a much simpler split.

It isn't really that simple.

The generator gets the bigger piece first, while the provisioner reward comes from what's left. That doesn't automatically make the model good or bad — I actually think the weighting makes more sense after looking at the different roles.

But it does make me curious about one thing:

How often is that extra 10% actually being earned by generators?

And how often is it ending up burned?

Because that small detail could tell us something interesting about how rewards behave under real network conditions, rather than just how they look on paper.

I don't want to judge the system from one number or one screenshot.

I'd rather watch the actual reward distribution across real blocks and see what keeps happening.

That's the part of Dusk staking I'm digging into now.

What do you think happens to most of Dusk variable 10% reward?
