Rocket Pool - Saturn 0 upgrade (Tokenomics Rework)

Updated: Nov 6


Saturn 0 upgrade which happened on 28 October 2024, 00:00 UTC. Now you can create ETH only minipools with no RPL collateral but with the following parameter changes:

  • The RPL requirement for new minipools are a thing of the past! Minipools launched after the inception of Saturn 0 do not require RPL stake to be deployed. Node operators can now create minipools with an upfront cost of 8 ETH. In addition, a node operator may stake RPL to qualify for additional rewards and access voting power within the Protocol DAO

  • Nodes with an RPL stake of any size qualify for RPL issuance rewards. This unlocks RPL rewards for Node Operators under the 10% collateral cliff who were previously unqualified for RPL issuance rewards.

  • This means nodes with an RPL stake of 0-15% of borrowed ETH receive the maximum APY on RPL. Nodes still earn RPL yield beyond 15% collateral, at a decreasing rate. Feel free to take a look how RPL issuance beyond 15% borrowed ETH is defined in RPIP-30.

  • Saturn 0 minipools have a 5% base ETH comission, which will be temporarily boosted up to 14% after Reward Tree Spec v10, up until the launch of Saturn 1.


Core Development: Saturn 1 Indicative Timeline

It’s an estimate rather than a guarantee. Each milestone will be completed as soon as possible, without compromising on quality.

Devnet releases will be semi-public, inviting active participation from testing enthusiasts while keeping the community engaged and informed. The dates shown indicate when we expect each release.

The core development team is confident in delivering Saturn1 and can’t wait to bring this program to life.


Expectation from Saturn 1 and 2 upgrade is that there will be 4ETH mini pools in Saturn 1. 1.5ETH mini pools after two LEB4s in Saturn 2. LEB (Low Eth bond).
