Core rewards some Gas costs back to the applications that generate them

On most blockchains, applications that bring traffic to users never get a penny of the Gas fees generated by those users. CoreDAO is trying to change that.

How

Rev+ works

Rev+ is Core's revenue-sharing mechanism at the protocol level, which can automatically allocate a portion of transaction Gas fees to builders, stablecoin issuers and DAOs based on contributions.

The plan runs two tracks in parallel:

A portion of the transaction Gas fee is automatically allocated to designated recipients when each transaction is executed, ensuring instant value sharing based on smart contract activities.

At the same time, Gas fees are accumulated into a shared reward pool and distributed monthly based on partners 'relative contributions on four key indicators. These four indicators are: number of transactions, new independent addresses, transfer value, and total fees incurred.

Participation is voluntary. Contracts are added through governance proposals, and users may pay slightly higher Gas fees based on Core's own guidelines when interacting with configured contracts.

The program aims to create a sustainable revenue stream for builders, potentially helping them move away from the model of raising funds through cryptocurrency issuance.

Theseus hard fork lays the foundation

The infrastructure behind Rev+ is implemented at the protocol level through the Theseus hard fork.

The Theseus hard fork was activated on the Core Mainnet at 08:00 UTC on June 25, 2025. This is a major protocol upgrade that focuses on improving transparency, revenue sharing and developer tools.

It introduces two key features: transaction hooks and fee-sharing at the protocol level.

This upgrade also provides enhanced on-chain insights through real-time tracking and includes other performance improvement fixes.

Rev+ aims to create a flywheel effect: as user activity increases, developers earn more revenue through Gas fee sharing, attracting more builders to join the Core network.

stablecoin issuers, which have traditionally faced high initial distribution costs, can now generate revenue directly from trading activities because every transfer generates revenue immediately through the direct distribution model.

Looking at the broader context, the annual transaction volume of stablecoin activity on the chain has exceeded US$35 trillion, about twice the processing capacity of Visa, but most of this value has not been translated into benefits for those building the underlying infrastructure. Rev+ is Core's direct response to this gap.
