Pools of the Cardano network are the central part of the blockchain due to the speed of information distribution through the network, transaction processing, and because the stability of newly created blocks depends on them. Unlike other POS-based blockchains, Cardano pools have their own personality.

Many pool owners are interested in more than just getting rewards or supporting decentralization. Some SPOs donate part of their profit to charity, and some create and develop projects that enrich the ecosystem. It's vital to support small pools that make the ecosystem and the world a better place.

The low stake is a key problem for small pools as this is resulting in blocks not getting assigned to them. As a result, the pool operator spends money on maintaining servers without having any profit. Delegators who want to support the pool's mission that have also delegated to it, deprive themselves of rewards for an indefinite period until the pool gains a sufficient amount of stake. This situation is an unambiguous Lose-Lose.

We offer a Win-Win solution to this problem which will allow small pools to survive until they reach a critical mass of stake to mint blocks on every epoch. At the same time, delegators will not deprive themselves of delegation rewards and, at the same time, will be able to support pools they like.

We call this solution "Pool Boost." Furthermore, it will actively use the ADAPlus functionality for mass payments. The idea for the mass payments solution won funding in Catalyst Fund6.



PoolBoost ($)

Pool Boost distributes 100% of its profit to SPOs. Delegators vote for SPOs and redelegate directly once the targeted amount is reached.
