ReProposal: Spam Prevention - Convert from system-based rewards to voter based rewards

Hi all,

given some discussions in this forum and also on Twitter, I thought it would be useful to add a few comments as per my understanding of this proposal on spam prevention

The proposal has three components

  1. Adjusting the reward allocation scheme: allocate voting rewards under the assumption that neurons vote on everything.
  2. Reward weights: Setting the reward weight for governance proposals back to 20
  3. Tracking: Track how many voting rewards are allocated on a given day vs the total available rewards.

For the last point on tracking, as mentioned above, this could be done by showing on the IC dashboard actually distributed voting rewards and the ratio of distributed vs total available voting rewards on a daily basis.

In particular, this does not mean that the unallocated voting rewards would go anywhere (e.g. in an account or a fund). It simply creates transparency of how much of the daily available rewards, as defined by the total reward function and the total supply, is allocated.

I hope this is helpful and please let me know in case you have any questions!
