# Catalyst Ecosystem Rewards

### Voters rewards

#### Voter Rewards: How They Are Calculated and Distributed

Voter rewards are given exclusively to active participants and are calculated in proportion to the voting power they hold.

It is important to note that voter rewards are distinct from rewards given to reviewers and moderators.

#### Who Receives Rewards and When

Fund14 Voters that have cast at least one vote and have large enough balance - will receive their rewards in the timeline outlined [here](https://docs.projectcatalyst.io/previous-funds/fund14-docs/fund-basics/fund-timeline). (Week of Nov 25, 2025)

#### Minimum Reward Threshold

The minimum reward amount required for immediate distribution is 1 ADA. This minimum is set by the Blockchain due to the minimum transfer cost, not by Catalyst.

* Rewards are temporarily retained when the calculated amount is too small (e.g., 1 ADA), as the transfer cost would equal or exceed the reward itself. Held rewards will accumulate over time.

#### What Happens to Unpayable Rewards

Voters in the following categories will not receive their rewards at the present time, but they will not lose their rewards (though an expiration date may be introduced in the future for unclaimed rewards that remain so for more than 12+ months):

* Voters who have rewards calculated to be less than 1 ADA.
* Voters who haven’t re-registered in F11 (meaning no ADA payment address was included in the registration transaction).

Unpayable rewards will be rolled up between funds and distributed in a subsequent Fund rewards disbursement (e.g., Fund15), as originally scheduled.

#### Reward Calculation Formula

Total\_reward = (voter\_stake / total\_active\_stake) \* voter\_reward\_budget
