CredSperiment Week 2 Payouts

The slow payouts are calculated weekly, but are based on lifetime cred, not weekly cred. I do intend to increase the payment sizes in the near future as I believe they are too small right now. Does that answer your question?

Oh I just saw that I had a 0 for the slow payout in week 2 because I was MIA the week before. If it was averaged over the course of a month vs a week it would “fix” that (for me). Maybe the week to week thing incentivizes more regular contributions though?

Neither mana nor cred have a half life, in the sense that they do not “decay”. However, they do “dilute”, as more mana and more cred are created over time. The value of the project should increase faster than dilution, so that neither mana nor cred tend towards irrelevance.

It’s possible that mana will dilute faster than cred, but this is far from assured. I think the ratio in the mana->cred conversion process (boosting) will be very important here.

Is there a separate post somewhere discussing the economics around cred/grain (supply schedule, price discovery, how value is captured, etc…)?

If not, something like this would be good to create in the context of a post announcing the new grain/cred names
