Proposal to reduce minPoolCost parameter from 340 to 170 ADA submitted on mainnet

10/23/2023 Cardano Foundation announced that it successfully submitted a transaction on the Cardano mainnet that lowered the minPoolCost parameter from 340 to 170 ADA Accordingly, starting with Epoch 445 (scheduled for 10/28/2023), the minimum setting value for the minPoolCost (minimum pool fixed cost) parameter can be reduced from 340 to 170 by each pool's policy/decision.

AKYO Pool Policy

AKYO Pool lowers the minPoolCost parameter from 340 to 170 ADA and sets Margin to 3%.

Reason

Since this is a very small pool, the minPoolCost (minimum pool fixed cost) will be lowered in order to be competitive. The current minimum minPoolCost (minimum pool fixed cost) of 340 ADA is not an option for delegation because many delegators tend to avoid pools less than 10M and delegate to pools above 10M. (Current total delegation for AKYO pool on 10/26/2023 = 1.84m ADA) Therefore, we decided to make this policy in order to have our representatives choose to delegate to our pool, even if it means cutting the operator's compensation. Regarding margins, we believe there is a concern that low-cost competition will be created, and we are operating nodes on high-quality servers. As for our track record, next March will mark the third anniversary of the pool's establishment. We are proud that we have supported many SPOs in Japan. With this in mind, we have set Margin at 3%.

Finally

We will continue to contribute to the community, and we appreciate your continued support.

We have posted the staking method, so please access it from the link below and delegate it, it will be encouraging in the future! Thank you!!

Which of the 6 choices did AKYO vote for?

🗳️

Which setup would you prefer to be put in place from Q3 2023 onwards?

  1. Keep k at 500 and halve minPoolCost to 170 ada.

I voted above.

👇You can see what each pool voted for from the URL below, so please refer to it.

Why did we choose this?

From the point of view of decentralization, we were thinking of k = 1000, but when k went from 150 to 500, I think there was a lot of movement to divide the pool and guide it to their own pool. Personally, I don't think splitting the pool is good from a decentralization point of view. I would like to consider it carefully. Next is minPoolCost (minimum fixed cost of the pool), because the minimum pool fixed cost is a relatively high percentage of total compensation, less than 10 million means it is not competitive. For this reason, many delegators tend to avoid pools of less than 10M and prefer pools of 10M or more. Therefore, we chose to halve the minPoolCost to 170 ADA to give the smaller pool a competitive edge. Finally, be aware that some Operators in smaller pools have determined that they are receiving too much of their current Operator rewards and regularly or irregularly distribute rewards to their Delegators. Our pool is one such pool.

🎉ISPO Information! AKYO🥁 was selected as Cardano Community Charity Coin!

Cardano Community Charity Coin(CCCC)is a newly launched native token on the Cardano blockchain that serves as both an investment vehicle and a governance token for CCCC's Decentralized Autonomous Organization (Charity DAO). Charity DAO is a project dedicated to facilitating community-driven giving and adoption of blockchain technology by nonprofits.

When a trade is conducted using CCCC, an 8% fee is charged, and the proceeds are deposited into the Charity DAO treasury. These funds are then utilized for donations and overhead expenses. Custom tokenomics have been implemented, including an automatic burn mechanism, to ensure a stable token price and discourage pump-and-dump schemes.

Our pool [AKYO] was selected for this great project 🎉
