$DEGEN

Thanks @jacek but it is not the trust in you we have problems with. All degens trust in you and the team. The problems are various actors that tend to skew the rules in their favour and in this way penalise small degen accounts that cannot rise or get their fair share. Thanks for all the efort you put to the project. I Really appreciate it. I would never dreamed of having any kind of influence, even small, on any social platform.

We’re super happy to hear opinions like these! The part at the end really makes Degen worthwhile. This season, we hope players of all sizes get a fair shot at tipping and that we spread the love not just to the big accounts but to every corner of Farcaster, creating a rich mix of content!

With allowances capped, we need a smart way for large wallets to sponsor small wallets. Mayhaps time for you to consider letting wallets above certain sizes delegate their unutilized allowances (ie, whatever they'd get beyond the cap limit). Whitelist the function to the largest wallets with the longest hold times (Feb forward) maybe.

We did talk briefly about a "vouching" mechanism, where you could stake funds toward another account, but ultimately decided it was too complicated for v1.

Maybe time to bring it back?

think so. but even I won't be able to guarantee any particular allowance at the rate the vault is growing. i could stake 300m today, take half the pool for me and mine, and be whittled down to dust within a month.

entropy will keep rising unless something pushes it back toward equilibria

Well, how allowances are exactly derived from the vault is not part of the contract, so that can be adjusted. You can always mathematically favor smaller accounts if you’re willing to do that. The upper cap is one way, a min floor would be another and an adjusted curve a third.
