# 5.1 Staking rewards distribution

**$ECT will set an incentive pool to reward users for their staking activities.**

Each stream releases rewards indefinitely through the so-called ‘**log distribution curve**’ (see table below), meaning that each time rewards are distributed (e.g. daily or weekly), the total amount of rewards distributed will be slightly less (e.g. 99% previously allocated). Due to this method, the reward curve will never drop to 0 and will be maintained indefinitely.

The slight decrease in the amount of rewards is offset by the expected long-term increase in the market value of the $ECT token. Ec³ DAO can make decisions to increase the current reward amount in case the reward curve is too low."
