Conclusion
In June, reward-related metrics rose across the board: total network rewards, median and average win values, and average earnings per active staking node all increased relative to May. Participation was mixed — the number of winning nodes rose slightly, while active staking nodes and total reachable full nodes both declined modestly. Geographically, active staking remained concentrated in Finland, while the broader population of reachable full nodes continued to be led by Germany, consistent with recent months.
