# If I stake my node on a building, will it still earn VPND from the VaporNodes reward pool?

Most likely a node staked on a building will not be able to earn VPND from the VaporNodes reward pool — but we have not finalized this decision. An opportunity cost would be a healthier economy balancer, and if staked nodes don’t earn VPND while staked — it would function as a natural impermanent reverse dilution of the VPND reward pool. We will consider all pros and cons of this design prior to making a final decision.
