June 2026 State of the Network Report
This report provides an overview of the Swarm network's key metrics for June 2026, including rewards, participation levels, and node distribution, and places them in context with recent monthly trends.
Info
Active nodes are full nodes identified by a unique Gnosis Chain address with the required minimum staked xBZZ that have submitted a commit transaction during the month.
Info
All rewards are denominated in xBZZ. Since the fiat value of xBZZ fluctuates monthly, these metrics may not reflect the real-world returns for node operators.
