Solana Validators Now Have Two Commissions, But Dashboards Only Show One

Solana has activated four protocol proposals that split validator commissions into two separate rates: one for inflation rewards and one for block revenue such as priority fees. Previously, delegators received only a share of inflation rewards and nothing from priority fees, regardless of how much fee revenue a validator earned. The new system allows validators to share block revenue with delegators via a second commission measured in basis points, but accounts not explicitly upgraded default to retaining 100% of block revenue. Most staking dashboards still display only the inflation commission, meaning the widely shown figure omits the block revenue commission entirely. Validators who update their block-revenue commission rate today will not see the change take effect for approximately two epochs due to the epoch-delay enforcement rule.
