Learn exactly how the Velocity yield is calculated with our helpful explainer video.
The Velocity yield is designed to reward Kinesis users for adding to the transactional velocity of the Kinesis monetary system by using Kinesis gold and Kinesis silver as money. Kinesis system participants can do so by either trading KAU and KAG on the Kinesis Exchange (this includes KAU and KAG coins that you have minted) or spending it via their Kinesis card.
For a full breakdown please read our comprehensive eligibility guide.
The Velocity yield is calculated from the total transaction fees, for any given month, that are accumulated from all system participants.
The specific transaction fees that are included to build up that total are:
All these fees sum up to create the Master fee pool, 10%* of this total is then paid to the Kinesis users as the Velocity yield.
*5% between the 4th of April 2019 and the 31st of October 2021 and 10% afterwards.
