How does one calculate backpay for PoDC 2.0 missing backpay?

If Points (RAC) on leaderboard for BBP is inaccurate, how could one accurately create the correct amount of BBP each miner is supposed to receive per day?

• BOINC stats – look up RAC per day (snapshot) for WCG project only
  • https://www.boincstats.com/stats/15/user/detail/dde30f3ef57ed2df69ecbc687db75e46/lastDays – copy RAC per day
  • Is the data accurate? We can spot check
  • Does it really matter because what other reliable source of data do we have?
  • compare with free-dc at least to most recent to see numbers match up
  • compare with user.gz and team.gz from wcg stats directory to validate
• Did the miner submit a sendgscc wcg transaction scheduled by BBP?
  • Look for BBP address on specific blocks (e.g. in exec rac look at “next_podc_gsc_transmission”: 169022)
    • Can we assume if auto was sent on block that it submitted enough coin age? yes
    • Do you count manually submitted sendgscc wcg? (Assume no in this exercise, out of scope).
  • Did the miner’s balance in the CPK have enough stake for the RAC they generated?
    • What team was the miner on?
      • team BiblePay = stake requirement ^1.3
      • non-BBP team (e.g. GridCoin) = stake requirement ^1.6
• What was the payout per address on the smart contract reward block?
  • did CPK also participate in other GSC campaigns?
    • sakic – healing
    • oncoapop3 – healing
    • randrews – poom, healing
    • akkin4 – healing
    • porpoise – healing
  • WCG only? or can we count CPK to see if their name appears in others campaigns.
  • can we subtract prominence of other gsc campaigns to arrive at correct RAC payment target?
  • is a good estimate to take ratio of top WCG only earner like rubicon, capulo, talisman – then apply same ratio to other RAC only miners?
    • So, if the ratio is 100 RAC : 80 BBP, then apply same ratio to other RAC only
    • Track ratio per day and use that ratio to compare whether the payment of BBP to RAC matches
      • outliers would be multi gsc participants, but hopefully will be easy way to confirm 80% with 20% work

Good starting point is from 166070 (Christmas Dec 25) and as PoG ended and PoDC 2.0 definitely started.

Import into Microsoft Access

CSV of WCG leaderboard

Make query grouping just cpk, bbp name, and cpk name

 

Next import all the payouts for the daily gsc reward.

ImportJSON of the specific txid for the daily gsc reward

import the json data into microsoft access

1/13/2020

import user.xml per day into access (user0104.xml to user0111.xml)

still need run a query that retrieves only the relevant cpid from christmas to present (01/11 should be okay).

make a table called user from the filtered list, this is what will be used for the analysis. linked tables is convenient but will slow down performance.

get the gsc daily payment and figure out an offset that works with the data

there’s no median function that I can really use. I may have to just code it in based on the bbp to rac ratio that is calculated in general. must exclude the high ones (randrews, sakic, sunk (some days) because of multi gsc). need to see the tx for specific blocks how many gsc they sent to.

for each day, figure out the ratio:

1/4	0.8
1/5	0.8
1/6	0.67
1/7	0.65
1/8	0.7
1/9	0.66
1/10	0.72
1/11
1/13	0.62

4 Jan 2020 = 0.8

5 Jan =

1/15/2020

Get stats from boincstats

it doesn’t go back far enough for grc feed or getting from wcg boinc stats download now

get chart.json from boincstats for each cpid

assume that each cpid sent enough stake per day

barton26 didn’t send on 1/12 but his name wasn’t on the leaderboard, so you can’t even rely on tx being sent on a specific block to be correct

you can only use who was paid, how much, and who should have been paid instead and re-do the payment for each day.

wcg.rac is

Thu, 16 Jan 2020 22:19:09 GMT

RAC 1/16/2020 – 2PM Los Angeles

PAYOUT 1/17/2020 – 9PM

offset is 1 day and 7hours? 1.5 days?

1/17/2020

updated qryRACpts5

added staticratio and calcratio (bbp_amount / rac).

created bbp_rac_ratio static table. took the dynamic range and decided on a static ratio.

any out of the staticratio range are likely multi campaign (randrews, sakic). not sure how to split them out. i don’t think they need to get adjusted payment.

still issue with people who did not submit gsc tx on a specific day. there is no pay day entry, but should be there…
