In Decred’s hybrid system, PoW acts similarly as with Bitcoin, but miners only
receive 60% of the block reward. Thirty percent of the Decred block reward goes

The **Ticket Fee** (`ticketfee`) is the fee that must be included in the ticket purchase to incentivize Proof-of-Work (PoW) miners to include that ticket in a new block. **Ticket Fee** usually refers to the DCR/kB fee rate for a ticket purchase transaction.
