New Moons Distribution (Round 7 Proposal)

UPDATES:As we mentioned in the last distribution, we’ve lowered the requirement for distribution polls.For a poll to pass, its winning option needs to have enough Moons to meet a Decision Threshold. This Decision Threshold has been set to a minimum of 10% of the Moons supply to start with.The decision threshold will automatically update once a week. The new decision threshold will be calculated as the average of the existing threshold and the number of Moons cast in favor of the most highly-voted option in governance polls over the last 4 weeks. There will still be a 10% minimum of the existing Moons supply (it can't go lower than that).When you create a poll, there is a new option to mark it as a Governance poll. These are the polls that will be used to make decisions and to update the decision threshold. If you are making a poll on Moons distribution, make sure to mark it as a Governance poll.We also wanted to provide some more data points that might be useful as you think about different ways to distribute Moons.There have been multiple polls on changing the weighting of comment karma and post karma. In the current round, 65% of the karma is from comments, 35% is from posts.There have been questions about changes in voting behavior. Since the introduction of Moons, there are 52% more upvotes on a weekly average, while only 25% more downvotes. There are 40% more unique users upvoting than before and 10% more downvoting.--Moons are r/CryptoCurrency's version of Community Points. Community Points are a way for users to be rewarded for their contributions to the subreddit, and they can be used on premium features in the community.Moons are distributed every 4 weeks based on contributions people make to r/CryptoCurrency. For every distribution, Reddit publishes karma data as a default measure of contribution. The community can review the data and optionally propose an alternative distribution, if they wish.This distribution is based on karma earned from 2020-10-28 to 2020-11-24. Here is the data.To propose an alternative distribution:You can create a CSV with alternative contribution scores or propose changes to the algorithm used to calculate them from karma (as long as the changes can be implemented easily).The amount of Moons distributed to a user will be proportional to their contribution score. Contribution scores cannot be negative.Make a poll to have the community vote on your proposal. Include an accurate description of the changes you are proposing.In order to pass, the winning option in the poll must meet the decision threshold (minimum number of Moons in support). If it is in favor of the change, it becomes the official contribution measurement (unless there is evidence of abuse in the vote, such as bribery). Algorithm changes will carry forward to future distributions.In case of multiple polls passing, the one with the most Moons cast in favor will be the official one.If no alternative passes, the data provided here will become official.The contribution scores for this round will be finalized on 2020-12-02. Any poll proposing an alternative needs to be completed before then.After the scores are finalized, Reddit will sign the data and publish the final, official data. After that, people will be able to claim their Moons through the Vault in the Reddit mobile app.
