PoI is designed to encourage active participation in the network by rewarding users who contribute to its growth, security, and overall health. Unlike Proof of Work (PoW), which rewards miners based on computational power, or Proof of Stake (PoS), which rewards users based on the amount of cryptocurrency they hold, PoI considers factors such as transaction history, network interactions, and the amount of cryptocurrency users move across the network. This ensures that both passive holders and active participants are rewarded, creating a more dynamic and engaged network.
