# Profit Distribution

Resolv collateral pool regularly realizes regular profits (losses) in terms of USD equivalent. The changes to the collateral pool value come from:

* Rewards from staking ETH;
* Futures funding rate income (expense).

#### Calculation of profits (losses)

Profits (losses) are calculated by the protocol regularly at the end of each reward epoch. Reward epoch specifications:

| Epoch Duration         | 24 hours     |
| ---------------------- | ------------ |
| Epoch Start / End Date | 12:00:00 UTC |

#### Reward distribution

Profits are distributed as follows:

| Reward       | Profit portion                                                               | Allocated pro rata to |
| ------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------- |
| Base Reward  | 76.5% (85% from 90%)\*                                                       | stUSR + RLP           |
| Risk Premium | 13.5% (15% from 90%)\*                                                       | RLP                   |
| Protocol Fee | 10%  \[[Check details](/litepaper/protocol-mechanics/fees.md#protocol-fees)] | Protocol              |

\*Profit portion updates will be introduced gradually across six weekly increments between 15 January and 19 February 2026, allowing yields to adjust smoothly.

If losses are realized during a reward epoch, such losses are allocated to RLP.&#x20;

Reward distributions are reflected for stUSR/wstUSR and RLP differently:

<table><thead><tr><th width="205">Token</th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>stUSR</td><td>Quantity increases (value is 1 stUSR = 1 USR at all times)</td></tr><tr><td>wstUSR</td><td>Value increases</td></tr><tr><td>RLP</td><td>Value increases (decreases)</td></tr></tbody></table>
