In each round, each live validator recorded its liveness activity with a ValidatorLivenessActivityRecord. This rewarded a validator for being available to validate and confirm transactions, and provided them with initial funds to purchase extra traffic for higher throughput after onboarding. CIP-0096 discontinued validator liveness rewards, phasing the per-validator liveness reward cap down to $0 effective 2026-04-30. Validators now earn CC only through activity rewards ā€” see Canton Coin and the Global Synchronizer for how validators earn CC today.
