Example
The total funding amount for fund 9 is 12,800,000 ADA. Some example percentage values to consider:
1% - 128,000 ADA
2% - 256,000 ADA
3% - 384,000 ADA
5% - 640,000 ADA
10% - 1,280,000 ADA
Applying some percentages to each category that add up to 100% produces the following example:
Category | Percentage | Category Budget Allocation |
---|---|---|
Community & Outreach | 15 | 1,920,000 ADA |
Products & Integrations | 20 | 2,560,000 ADA |
Governance & Identity | 20 | 2,560,000 ADA |
Development & Infrastructure | 25 | 3,200,000 ADA |
Small & Early Stage Ideas | 6 | 768,000 ADA |
Catalyst Contributors | 7 | 896,000 ADA |
Infrastructure Contributors | 7 | 896,000 ADA |
Total | 100 | 12,800,000 ADA |
NOTE: The amounts in the example above would then need to be rounded to the closest 25,000 ADA. This is currently a required part of the funding process.
Outcome notes
- Voter power - 1 person 1 vote.
- Weighted outcome - The outcome from the vote is based on weightings. Values will be aggregated from every vote to work out the final value for each category.
- Rounded outcome - The final values will be rounded to the nearest whole number. For example, 24.64 would be rounded to a 25% allocation. The total weightings together will equal 100%.
