# Node Rewards

Node holders will be rewarded, mainly with LAVA. Vulcan Forged is determined to create a sustainable and balanced economy and so uses several ways to collect rewards for node holders. For now, we offer three types of nodes: Cronus, Demeter, and Elysium Forges. Higher-tier nodes receive slightly better incentives, the same applies for higher locking periods.

Currently, these are the fees used for the rewards:

* LAVA that‘s used as gas on the Elysium blockchain
* LAVA that‘s being paid for sowing NFTs
* Royalty fees generated on the Agora marketplace. A percentage of fees from NFT sales will be distributed to node holders.

Royalty fees are paid in a % of PYR and other ELS-20 token transactions on the market.
