# Seba

### Why Seba?

Seba exists to make solo validating more attractive and to steer validators away from centralized staking solutions. By offering perpetual yield in exchange for temporarily foregoing execution rewards, Seba incentivizes solo validators to participate in a long-term, sustainable ecosystem.

### Protocol Overview

Seba is a protocol inspired Heroglyphs that enables perpetual yield for solo validators.\
Validators who opt into the Seba Pool agree to forego their execution rewards for a set graduation period. In return, once the graduation period ends, they receive perpetual yield proportional to:

* The amount of ETH staked
* Their attestation score during the pool period\
  ​

The yield is paid in the form of **sBOLD** tokens.

Extra boosts are available for aligned validators with the <mark style="color:green;">Seba Boosts</mark> program, increasing their rewards significantly. After graduating, validators may opt out of the protocol while still retaining their perpetual yield benefits.

Missing attestations lowers a validator's share which ensures an ecosystem focused on good performance of all participants.
