Earning with DeCharge

How You Earn

Proof of Power

The main purpose of the DeCharge Proof of Power Protocol is to Validate Both the Current Status of the DeCharge Station, ensuring it is operational, and also to validate the current charge level to determine it’s usefulness to the network.

The power unit that is standard on all DeCharge devices is connected to the internet via either WiFi or PoE.

JSON API provides a way for DeFli to access DeCharge Devices through the cloud server (broker server) sending and receiving HTTP requests and responses. Each HTTP request contains a “User UUID parameter” to identify the Device and it’s respective wallet owner.

Power readings are validated on 8 random occasions per epoch (24H)

Key Metrics

Voltage-mV

This figure is compared to the maximum output of the device and a percentage is determined

Voltage-mA

This figure is compared to the maximum output of the device and a percentage is determined.

The amount of $dDECHARGE awarded per successful validation is equivalent to the sum of (%mV + %mA)/2). The output value is determined to be representative of the % of the maximum reward available.

Charge Rewards

As with Proof of Power Rewards, Charge Rewards are Determined by Data Pulled from the JSON API. The two states used to determine the charge rewards are:

“Energy-mWh”: This is the transferred energy in mWH

“Charge-mAh”. This is the transferred charge in mAh.

Unlike Proof of Power, the GET request for these values is fixed at 60 Minute Epoch to enable a direct comparison and calculation between 2 fixed time points.

The awards methodology is based on taking the highest reported figure for each and creating reward tranches at a standard deviation downwards consecutively.

The 1st tranche will be capped at 10% of total active units, the second at 20%, the third at 30% and the remainder in to a final tranche. The first tranche will split 65% of the available rewards, the second 20%, the third 10% and the remainder 5%.

Where a Hangar is retained across an epoch then a fixed reward will be issued equivalent to the average mWh and mAh responses prior to the storage use.
