No monetary incentive but security as an incentive by keeping the network decentralized.

From the perspective of mining profitability, connecting to public nodes is generally superior to private nodes. This is because public nodes offer advantages in block propagation efficiency, orphan rate, and network synchronization, significantly increasing the block confirmation probability and hash rate efficiency for Solo mining, thereby maximizing profits. For private nodes, unless miners can configure high-performance, optimized nodes (e.g., supported by professional data centers), their profitability is likely to be inferior to that of public nodes.
