# Voting and Rewards

**Only the Halo can vote on proposals, and each wallet or NFT gets one vote per proposal.** To take part, voters must have at least **8,700,000 M87** staked. Proposals stay open for **87 hours** before the majority decides the result.

Rewards from successful proposals are distributed according to each wallet or NFT's staked position, along a linear bonding curve relative to its share of the reward pool(s).

**When a proposal passes, an immutable smart contract market-buys the token named in the proposal, using its contract address.** It then splits the acquired tokens as follows:

* **87%** is held in the treasury until the cycle ends.
* **12.13%** is distributed to all stakers in the regular pool (Pool 1, MTT), including NFT holders.
* **0.87%** is reserved for NFT holders in an exclusive additional pool (Pool 2, MOTT).

**Claiming:** rewards can be claimed in **ETH** or in the **invested token**. You can claim them one by one, or let rewards of the same token build up and claim them in one payout.

At the end of the cycle, the 87% held in the treasury feeds Supernova. Supernova pays extra rewards to Dark Listed stakers and funds the M87 buyback & burn.
