Decentralized compensation refers to payment or reward systems managed and distributed through autonomous protocols on a blockchain, rather than by a central authority. These systems often utilize smart contracts to automatically disburse tokens or other digital assets based on predefined conditions or community consensus. It promotes transparency and fairness in reward distribution within decentralized autonomous organizations or open-source projects. This method removes intermediaries from payment processes.

Challenges persist in accurately valuing contributions and preventing Sybil attacks within these systems. Ongoing innovations focus on reputation-based rewards and quadratic funding models to improve fairness and resource allocation.
