As part of this process, ten percent of newly minted STEEM coins are allocated to these block producers. This serves as an incentive for them to maintain the security and integrity of the blockchain.

In addition to block producers, STEEM also rewards those who stake their coins on the network. These individuals, known as STEEM stakers, receive governance tokens called Steem Power (SP) in proportion to their stake.
