GN Degens, Bans Update We're applying bans as we wrap up Season 12. In Season 13, all bans will be reset, giving everyone a fresh opportunity to earn tips. At the end of each season, we'll reevaluate activity using a rule-based analysis of our choosing to weed out behavior that closely aligns with farming. To prevent gaming the system, we won't announce rules in advance but will use various techniques to monitor how tips are being distributed.

For Season 13, we’re lowering the daily allowance pool from 5M DEGEN per day to 1M DEGEN. This change aims to reduce token inflation and extend airdrop sustainability for years. Additionally, we’re removing the tip4tip rule since it hasn’t been effective at curbing farming.

Here’s what led to bans this season: 1. McDegen Bot Overuse: Users who sent 60% or more of their tips to the McDegen bot were banned. Mint.club wasn’t intended to be a quick monetization method, but unfortunately, that’s how it’s been used. 2. High Tip Reciprocity: We analyzed how often tips were reciprocated. For example, if you tipped someone 100 DEGEN and they tipped you back 100 DEGEN, reciprocity was 100%. We leaned in favor of users by analyzing the 40th percentile. If 60% or more of the users you tipped reciprocated at least 95% of the amount you tipped them, you were flagged. For example, if you consistently received 95 DEGEN back for every 100 DEGEN you tipped more than 60% of the time, you were banned.

GM Jacek, This reciprocating tip rule could be a big setback for artists. Most artists want to thank and support the artist tippers by tipping, sometimes with the same amount of tip, sometimes less or more. Eventually at some point artists will get trapped in this rule, without the intention of farming. I think it's brutal to call it farming. We need to monitor and catch the big fishes, that's where the huge chunk of degen is usurped. But I really appreciate what you're doing in spite of a tough challenge.
