:brain: Protocol Development Update

Our protocol team has been hard at work refining the foundations of the Causevest system:

  • Power-Law Distribution Fix:
    We’ve resolved an issue with the way large payouts were being calculated using power-law distributions. The new update ensures that the chance of large rewards remains consistent, regardless of the payout range, keeping the system fair and transparent.

    We are finalizing simulations to model the long-term economic flow of XCV coins across the network. This will help us set robust economic parameters that drive sustainable participation and incentives.Key areas:
    • Refining logic behind network pools and pot distributions
    • Testing various base flow assumptions for XCV
    • Diagnosing and improving simulation stability
