Investors in Jito's JTO token are set to receive payouts based on a new proposal named TipRouter, which aims to change Jito's economic structures. Jito Labs has historically distributed tips between validators of the Jito software, but this new system will involve a wider network of node operators who will help allocate approximately $15 million worth of tips generated every few days. Under the proposed governance model JTO-10, which will potentially introduce economic benefits for JTO holders, these holders will see a direct upside from their staked assets. The proposal builds on Jito's past actions, including the creation of a restaking network for Solana and the adoption of a governance model that favors market-driven outcomes over traditional voting. Although the initial rollout of the TipRouter will not include a slashing mechanism to penalize dishonest node operators, the project leaders maintain that there are plans to incorporate such measures in the future as the system is refined. The setup is seen as a way to demonstrate the utility of decentralized networks and ensure ongoing participant engagement within the ecosystem.
