I participated in the 3H. After daily observation and recording, I found that the daily reward of 3H rarely exceeded 165,000. Even if calculated based on the daily amount of 165,000, one tSSC point can be exchanged for 8.6 ATC. However, the official ATC, after conversion, has an exchange ratio of about 8.2. I was very curious and went to find out the reason.
Finally, it was found that it was mainly because the block generation speed of each block was faster during the 3F incentive test network, which led to more tSSC in the 3F period. 3f, 3g, and 3h were calculated together, so the tSSC exchange ratio in the 3h period was lowered.
The evidence is as follows:
According to the official information, the incentives started on September 6th and ended on 2nd November 2023. It took about 56 days in total. But the end block height was 1135039. (566060*24)/1135039 == 4.26 seconds.
Finally, the announcement is 0.01% of the total weekly amount. Why are all the rewards of 3f, 3g, and 3h calculated in one pool instead of calculating them separately every week?
The reward distribution doesn’t seem to be related to the amount of TSCC test tokens you hold. It is mainly determined by the number of blocks you participate in as a farmer.
The reward pool grew at 0.1% per week. It has never been our intention to partition the rewards weekly or by network. The only place they were partitioned was when we aligned emission with mainnet. As discussed here: Aligning Incentivized Testnet Emissions - What, Why, When?.
