Another one of the most distinguishing elements of the DYDX token model is that staking rewards are not paid through inflation.

Instead, staking rewards are funded entirely by protocol activity - primarily trading and transaction fees.

- Rewards are paid in USDC, not newly minted DYDX

- There is no dilution of token supply for this purpose

- APR is dynamic, fluctuating with real protocol usage
