Significant changes in the BALLS 2.0.1 Two Stage Hard Fork:
- Protocol has been switched back
- Blocks will return to their previous speed
- Protocol switch occurs at 1424995200
- 02/27/2015 @ 12:00am (UTC)
Staking Changes
- Staking will return to its previous frequency
- Stake rewards have been updated to be more interesting
- Now based on block number in a specific, fixed range
- A few features or changes have been cut to prevent a coin swap to a new chain
- Stake rewards start fluctuating at Block 200,000
Stake Reward Structure in its entirety is as follows:
Code:
int64 GetProofOfStakeRewardYear(int nHeight) {
static int64 nBaseCoinYear = 5000 * CENT;
static int64 nMaxPercent = 20000;
static int64 nReward = 0;
if (nHeight <= 80000)
return nBaseCoinYear;
if (nHeight <= 85000)
return nBaseCoinYear + ((nHeight - 80000) * CENT);
if (nHeight <= 94000)
return (nBaseCoinYear * 2) - ((nHeight - 85000) * CENT);
if (nHeight < 200000) {
return 1000 * CENT;
} else {
nReward = (nHeight % nMaxPercent);
if (nReward == 0)
nReward = nMaxPercent;
printf("Stake percent on block %d is %d\n", nHeight, nReward);
return nReward * CENT;
}
}
static int64 nBaseCoinYear = 5000 * CENT;
static int64 nMaxPercent = 20000;
static int64 nReward = 0;
if (nHeight <= 80000)
return nBaseCoinYear;
if (nHeight <= 85000)
return nBaseCoinYear + ((nHeight - 80000) * CENT);
if (nHeight <= 94000)
return (nBaseCoinYear * 2) - ((nHeight - 85000) * CENT);
if (nHeight < 200000) {
return 1000 * CENT;
} else {
nReward = (nHeight % nMaxPercent);
if (nReward == 0)
nReward = nMaxPercent;
printf("Stake percent on block %d is %d\n", nHeight, nReward);
return nReward * CENT;
}
}
Fork goes live in about 22 hours. Make sure you are updated to 2.0.1
After fork if I am reading this right it looks to me like apr% will grow slowly as chain ages. Starting at 10. Does that sound like a fair assessment? Is % division or a mod operator? Thanks
