The Problem
Algorand's participation rewards traditionally required nodes to hold the minimum stake themselves, excluding small holders and concentrating consensus participation among large operators.
The Solution
Reti pools stake from many users into validator-run pools that meet the network's node minimums, with all economics enforced by immutable on-chain contracts and no protocol-level fees.
Why it Matters
The Algorand Foundation's reference open-pooling protocol: immutable contracts, instant unstaking with no lockup, no LST receipt token (direct ALGO delegation), and zero protocol skim — validators set their own commission.
