> Hello Again. In my last analysis we found that rewards for some individuals were as high as 180% of their rewards without this proposal. We also talked about how the most heavily impacted “losers” were losing out because they have a collateral ratio and many eb16s, and that they could mitigate their downside by migrating to leb8s. Logically, that downside mitigation comes out of the other nodes’ rewards… but, what would that look like? Today I modified treegen again to calculate the hypotheti…

> Gov Stuff I’ve generated a rewards tree using the proposed formula for target interval 15 which ended a day ago. Attached you’ll find the tree, along with a csv showing how each node’s rewards would have been different if this proposal had been enacted before interval 15. [Click here for the rewards tree](https://shuf.ro/rp/rp-rewards-mainnet-15.json)[Click here for CSV summary](https://shuf.ro/rp/rpip30interval15.csv) Once downloaded, you can search the CSV for your node id to find your personal impact. You’ll need to lowercase your node id first. For example: node interval1…

Over about 2 days of work, I implemented RPIP-30’s post-phase-in state in treegen, and created two alternative-history trees for interval 15.

These aimed to answer the question, “all else held equal, what would rewards for every node look like if RPIP-30 was already enacted and past its phase-in”.

I believe they helped the community understand the shape of the rewards curve, and the tangible incentives the new tokenomics would create, reducing confusion during the vote.
