Alice has 10 tokens, Bob has 20 tokens, Alice mints 20 stake tokens by locking for 2 years and bob has 10 stake tokens for locking for 6 months. This gives Alice 2x more stake-time tokens than Bob even though bob has more native tokens. These curves can represent any custom pattern as follows allowing for more precise incentives.
We might be slow to meet expectations, but we are trying to get this right and make the most flexible and secure protocol that cannot be gained from speculative grifters. This is a consistent problem that takes down many protocols and it’s crucial to get this down to a science. We will build openly so anyone can poke a hole in the theory so it can adapt to standing the tests of time.
We’ve been quiet but code doesn’t lie. We will be only posting when we have material to release and we’ve been cooking. Our goal is to make an open source economy frictionless. This is an iterative process and there are no guarantees. But constant improvements compound the probabilities of success. In time we will see if we are right!
