What are Validator Fees?

Each validator node-runner can also receive a % of the emissions of XRD tokens earned by their validator component by specifying a validator fee. The validator fee is a % of the total emissions earned by stakers to the node, which is taken by the validator node-runner to incentivize their operation of a performant and reliable validator node.

XRD holders can see the % fee for each validator node by using the Radix Dashboard dApp website (or other third party dApp websites) before choosing to stake.
