Mining Reward

The mining reward is the benefits received for finding and validating a new block. The mining reward is given to the miner who successfully validates a block, which is then added to the blockchain. The mining reward is used to incentivize miners to continue to validate blocks and secure the network. The mining reward is also a way to distribute new coins, as each block contains a certain number of new coins. When a block is validated, the miner who validated the block receives the mining reward, which is then divided among the miners according to their share of the work.
