April 2026: Scout Incentives Update, Token Registry new policy & UI Upgrades

April 2026: Scout Incentives Update, Token Registry new policy & UI Upgrades

Scout Incentive renewed for April🎉! We will also introduce a few important refinements based on community feedback to improve UX.

1. Incentives

All pools, caps, and eligibility rules remain unchanged for April.

Explorer Tagging Requirement (ATR and Token)

In order to be rewarded, entries on Address Tag Registry and Token Registry must not already be tagged on the respective block explorer:

Ethereum Mainnet → etherscan.io
Avalanche C Chain → snowscan.xyz
zkSync → era.zksync.network
Scroll → scrollscan.com
Gnosis → gnosisscan.io
Celo → celoscan.io
Base → basescan.org
Linea → lineascan.build
Solana → solscan.io
Arbitrum One → arbiscan.io
OP Mainnet → optimistic.etherscan.io
Polygon → polygonscan.com
megaETH → mega.etherscan.io

Notes:

CDN entries are not subject to this requirement.

Even if your ATR or Token Registry entry isn’t eligible for rewards (ATR and Token), don’t worry. If it meets the policy criteria, it will still be accepted. Every valid contribution helps strengthen the ecosystem.

Transaction data refinements

We are also improving how transaction data is handled:

  • Solana normalization: transaction counts are adjusted to align with EVM chains, preventing inflated values from dominating the distribution
  • Failed transactions filtering: thanks to improved APIs, failed transactions are no longer counted as successful activity

2. Incentives Parameters

Address Tag Registry (ATR)

Pool: 100,000 PNK (93,000 for submissions; 7,000 for removals)
Max reward per successful submission: 500 PNK
Max reward per successful removal: 500 PNK

ERC20, ERC721, and EIP-1167 submissions remain excluded from incentives (but still accepted if compliant)

Submissions:

reward_per_submission = reward_pool * ((1 / (2 * total_submissions)) +(txns_with_contract / (2 * total_txns_with_all_contracts)))

Removals:

reward_per_removal = reward_pool / total_removals

Token Registry

Pool: 100,000 PNK (93,000 for submissions; 7,000 for removals)
Max reward per successful submission: 500 PNK
Max reward per successful removal: 500 PNK

Solana tokens must have at least 5,000 holders to be eligible

Submissions:

reward_per_submission = ( (token_tx / total_txns_with_all_contracts) * 0.1 * reward_pool ) +( (sqrt(token_tx) / sum_sqrt_total_txns_with_all_contracts) * 0.9 * reward_pool )

the formula remained the same but we gave the square root a greater weight to reduce the influence of larger tokens

Removals:

reward_per_removal = reward_pool / total_removals

CDN Registry

Pool: 100,000 PNK (93,000 for submissions; 7,000 for removals)
Max reward per successful submission: 500 PNK
Max reward per successful removal: 500 PNK

All compliant submissions are rewarded

Submissions:

reward_per_submission = reward_pool * ((1 / (2 * total_submissions)) +(txns_with_contract / (2 * total_txns_with_all_contracts)))

Removals:

reward_per_removal = reward_pool / total_removals

Address Tag Queries (ATQ)

Submissions pool: 60,000 PNK (max 3,000 PNK per submission)
Removals pool: 6,500 PNK (max 500 PNK per removal)
Eligible chains: All

Formula (valid for both submissions and removals):

reward = reward_pool / successful_requests

3. Token Policy Update

We introduced a small update to the Token Registry policy related to retroactivity.

For full details, please refer to:
https://cdn.kleros.link/ipfs/QmdaUwTrvePqgh7hw472BSN7gxuH9UktbWAzsz23hQKjhA

Specifically, check point 10 and point 14.

4. Policy History : New Frontend Feature!

To support better transparency around retroactivity, we added a new feature to the frontend.

You can now live-fetch policy versions from history, allowing you to see exactly which policy was in force when an item was Submitted, Registered, Challenged, Rejected

This makes it much easier to understand past decisions and ensures full traceability of registry actions.

You will find these info in each registry Policy>Previous Policies

TL;DR

  • New frontend feature: live policy history for full transparency
  • Solana transactions normalized to EVM standards
  • Failed transactions are no longer counted
  • Token policy updated (see points 10 and 14). Live on April 1st
  • New incentives starting from April 1st.
