Token value=?€

Hi folks, since we want to launch by 10.03, we also need to transform the monetary value entered by the dreamer into a token value.
What we discussed during the workshop as a proposal.
Assuming that:
- we have an 80% participation of ticket holders (=800 people)
- dreams budget of x€
- 10 tokens per person
- 10% of art grants do not happen
We arrive at:
1 token= x€/8000/90%
example: budget=20.000€
1 token=20.000€/8.000/90%=2,8€
What do you think?
If ok, then we would just need @alexxx to tell us how much money he can give us :D

Due to change in budget, the token value reduces to 2,64€

nah, they enter a €€€ amount on the dreams platform, so no need to re-communicate this. tnx for the ping @loomikate

Hey, I (as a dreamer) found out about this from a fellow dreamer, and I do think it's important to update all the dreamers about any changes. Obviously, this current method invites all kind of strategy and planning. Therefore (and in general), transparency would be a very good thing.
Also, the excel sheet that was created to submit budgets through wasn't updated, so there is mis-information - far from ideal and can be highly confusing.

Ok, then we should update the dreamers, tnx for flagging @loomikate and @danielregev . But the dreamers do not need to take any action, the dream budget will be adjusted automatically to need a slightly higher number of tokens from voters.
I adjusted the budget sheet yesterday, so should actually be fine? If still something wrong in the spreadsheet, let me know :)

Hey @waldo - yeah, how I see it is that for the sake of transparency and clarity, all dream guides should be informed and they pass the info on to the dreamers.
My excel sheet (budget) wasn't updated as I originally created a new sheet - the one that was posted was "view only" so I copy-pasted it and created a new one. I have now changed the "code" in my budget excel sheet to be 2.64 and not 3.5 :-)
Thanks!

@waldo if the guaranteed funding for dreams (such as welfare and rangers) is going to be added on the platform, when will that show up? might help people to have a better feeling for how funded things actually are when they cast their votes.

That seems like the reasonable option. Some people may spend their votes out of a sense of responsibility rather than choice if they didn't know that the minimum funding was already met.
Not that I want to discourage voting for awesome infrastructure stuff, but I feel it should be a transparent process.

walto Mon 22 Apr 2019 11:04PM
yes I agree, but we were slow with that... Better next year?

walto Tue 9 Apr 2019 8:07PM
what would be your suggestion? Add it now?
Daniel Regev Wed 10 Apr 2019 6:31AM
To me, the KBorg boosting some projects during the middle of the voting process is anything but transparent. Maybe I misunderstood here, but in my view (as a participant and a dreamer) if there is a "boost"/auto-funding for a projects it has to show either at the beginning or at the end of the voting. Please think twice or consult with other dreamers before you play games / manipulate the platform and affect dreams which are not funded by the KBorg.
Both decisions (boosting soon so the guaranteed funding shows, or not showing as it is currently) have valid reasoning at the current situation, but real transparency would have been to show the guaranteed funding at the START of the voting, e.g gate starting from 400, welfare starting from 300, rangers from 200 etc, with a little note ("funded by KBorg") to inform the voters.

that sounds much smarter! And yes, we saw in previous years that minimum 10% of the allocated art grants did not happen. Last year it was even 15%.
So value at 3,5€ if we have 20k€ in the pot there. neat!

What is the logic of "10% of art grants do not happen"? You expect that of the total amount of money that is allocated through tokens, 10% of it will ultimately go unused/unclaimed? Therefore you want to over-allocate money so that when 10% of the allocated money goes unused, the full used amount will be equal to the planned budget?
If that's the case, shouldn't the formula be:
value = budget / (1 - unused percent) / (ticket holders x tokens per holder x participation rate)
value = 20000 / (1 - .1) / (800 x 10 x .8)
value = 3.47€
and then working backwards:
800 ticket holders get 10 tokens each for 8000 tokens total
only 80% of tokens are used for 6400 used tokens
6400 x 3.47 = 22208€ allocated by tokens
10% of allocated money goes unclaimed
22208€ x .9 = 19987€ used
or did I just misunderstand the purpose of that?
