Device growth, workload mix, and earnings profile
We begin with approximately 25,000 devices focused on VPN workloads, where per-active-device earnings are in the low-teens USD per month.
The fleet grows each quarter, and we introduce blockchain full nodes next year. Full nodes earn in the “tens of USD” per active device per month (roughly 2-3× VPN).
By the end of next year, we target approximately 200,000 devices globally. As the full-node share increases, the blended per-device earnings trend from low-teens toward higher-teens.
Most devices are active monthly (internally modeled at 80–90%, subject to region, network, and scheduling).

Ecosystem Growth and Roadmap
LayerK's growth focuses on node expansion and workload diversification. Starting with VPN, we aim for 200,000+ devices by end-2026, blending in higher-yield jobs like blockchain nodes.
