⚠️ Rule Caveat

This Jito reward rule (#5) is not one-size-fits-all. You should perform a brief analysis of the Jito rewards in your account—reviewing source addresses, typical amounts, and frequency and adjust the rule conditions (e.g. asset quantity range, from address, wallet) accordingly to best match your validator’s actual activity. This ensures accurate and effective categorization.
