Reward inherents

2,038.73 NIM for batch 719

Validators are paid only in macro blocks, and always one batch late: this election block pays for the previous batch, batch 719. The delay leaves a full batch for equivocation proofs about that batch’s last blocks to come in before anything is paid out. One reward inherent per validator, sent to its reward address and shared out by slots.

Signing this block isn’t what earns the reward; punished slots are what reduce it. A skip block punishes the missed slot, and the punishment can carry over into the following batch. No slots were punished in batch 719.
