Protocol incentives are economic mechanisms designed within a blockchain protocol to motivate participants to act in ways that benefit the network’s security and operation. These often include token rewards for validators, liquidity providers, or developers contributing to the ecosystem. They align individual actions with the collective goals of the decentralized system. Such mechanisms are crucial for maintaining network health and growth.
