100% paying nodes

this calculations method is nice.
However a huge work to very and check.
How to define community contribution?
What is the leased limit in waves?
do we consider token payouts also higher then 90%?

Splitting you Waves in more wallets would not change anything, as each account should still respect the cap to be reserved for each leasing pool.

*i.e. *
Let’s suppose you have 1000 Waves and cap of 25% (250 Waves) for each leasing pool
The cap will be 250 Waves for each pool.
Pool A Cap: 25% * 1000 Waves = 250 Waves
Pool B Cap: 25% * 1000 Waves = 250 Waves
Pool C Cap: 25% * 1000 Waves = 250 Waves
Pool D Cap: 25% * 1000 Waves = 250 Waves

If you split your 1000 Waves in 2 accounts of 500 Waves each, you still can’t give more than 250 Waves to each leasing pool:

ACCOUNT 1
Pool A Cap: 25% * 500 Waves = 125 Waves
Pool B Cap: 25% * 500 Waves = 125 Waves
Pool C Cap: 25% * 500 Waves = 125 Waves
Pool D Cap: 25% * 500 Waves = 125 Waves

ACCOUNT 2
Pool A Cap: 25% * 500 Waves = 125 Waves
Pool B Cap: 25% * 500 Waves = 125 Waves
Pool C Cap: 25% * 500 Waves = 125 Waves
Pool D Cap: 25% * 500 Waves = 125 Waves

Therefore each pool could get still max 250 Waves.

That said, I think the question we should really ask ourselves is this:

  • is it right to force a user to divide their waves on different leasing pools, or is it more right to leave full freedom of decision (even to put all Waves in leasing in a single pool)?

Theoretically this would be the way to go.

However, practically, people follow their own convenience and not the common good. :smile:

For this reason, in my opinion, the imposition of rules is necessary even if they limit personal freedoms a little in favor of a greater common good. And putting a leasing cap could be a good compromise between personal interests and common good.

Imho establishing a cap of 25% could be a good compromise.

I agree, but if you make it inconvenient for users to stake to ‘the wrong’ node more users will stake to smaller / other nodes. Even if this means they can still stake to any node they like most will pick one out of the UI.
