Public Goods Staking, or PGS, is a Dora Factory innovation wherein validator rewards get funneled back into the ecosystem rather than extracted as a typical validator commission. A PGS validator uses the commission fees to sponsor grants, hackathon prizes, bounty rewards, and ecosystem funding opportunities specifically for ecosystem chain developers and teams developing frontier technologies. PGS validators provide an everlasting source of funding for ecosystem developers, regardless of external market conditions, which helps ensure the sustainability of chain activity and long-term growth. These developer incentives will be available to all community members on the DoraHacks platform.
