Community Proposal #1
Currently about 7.5 million DEC is being minted per season for Leaderboard Rewards. This is the last source of DEC inflation that has not been removed aside from cards being burnt. If this proposal passes we will cease DEC Leaderboard Rewards, reserve 36,000 Rebellion packs from the print run and replace the DEC leaderboard rewards with Rebellion packs as follows:
In the chart above, packs were replaced 1:1 or as close as possible with previous DEC rewards at a rate of 5,000 DEC per pack. This leaves us replacing the previous DEC printing with roughly 7,340,000 DEC worth of packs each season, which can vary slightly due to Leaderboard ties.
The SPS DAO receives half of the DEC from pack sales, so by replacing the DEC printing that has been going on for years with Rebellion packs, we're essentially able to give the same amount of rewards with half of the cost to the DAO.
The amount of packs is also relatively small over the course of the Rebellion product life cycle so should not seriously inflate the print run. If we round up to 1500 packs per season to account for ties, we'd be distributing at most 36,000 packs a year or less than 2% of a 2 million pack print run.
