Two things shape your earnings: how long your devices stay online, and how good your connection is. Your dashboard shows both as Average online time and Online time by quality.
Average online time
The more time your devices spend online and contributing, the bigger your impact on the AI network — and the more you earn. Uptime is the single biggest factor, so staying connected matters most.
Online time by quality
Not all online time is worth the same. Your earnings depend on connection quality: time on a connection with latency under 600ms earns 2x the regular rate. Higher-quality time is worth more.
< 600ms
