RE: Some progress on my RAC estimation experiment
If things go to my imagination (which the community might not approve), the RAC will be removed from reward calculation and replaced by total credit gain.
That's the long term goal AFAIK. But at the moment it's still here. I'm trying to gain a better understanding, that won't hurt. It might help the discussion which is one of my goals. Another one is that I might gather data which we could use to simulate future proposals. Ultimately it's a question of how Gridcoin wants to reward contribution to science.
There are always talks about the fact that RAC is obsolete but other ideas don't make it right now.
Can someone enlighten us on the difficulties with total credit. To be honest: I forgot. (The credit needs to be stored in the chain?)
I don't think there are any major difficulties. It just takes time to design and work to make reality. And this one, is not something we can change few lines and be it. This is unknown.
Could you elaborate on total credit gain? Is this the total credit gain per project (similar to the current RAC approach) or total credit gain for all projects combined? Thanks.
It would still be on a per project basis, due to the vastly different rates at which individual projects hand out credit.
