🗳 ARK Proposal #007
Improving Yield Distribution & DAO Alliance Coefficient Calculations
Fairer Rewards, Stronger Long-Term Incentives

📘 Proposal Overview
To further improve ARK’s reward system and DAO alliance incentives—and to better align contributions with long-term participation—this proposal introduces two targeted updates to the current rules.

1️⃣ Remove the “Active Account” Requirement for Staking Rewards
Current Rule:
Only accounts with a total holding value of 100 USDT or more are eligible to receive staking rewards.
Proposed Update:
All staking accounts, including those below 100 USDT, will be eligible to earn staking rewards.
The active account requirement will remain unchanged for DAO alliance rewards.

Why This Matters:
* Lower the entry barrier for new users
* Allow more holders to benefit from protocol growth
* Expand staking participation without weakening alliance incentive standards

2️⃣ Include Compounded Rewards in DAO Alliance Coefficient Calculations
Current Rule:
DAO alliance coefficients are calculated based only on the original staked principal, excluding compounded (reinvested) rewards.
Proposed Update:
Compounded rewards will be counted as part of contribution performance and included in DAO alliance coefficient upgrades.

Why This Matters:
* Reflect real, long-term contribution more accurately
* Encourage compounding and reinvestment behavior
* Better align incentives with the (3,3) long-term cooperation model

🎯 Proposal Goals
* Lower participation friction and grow the active community
* Reward long-term commitment and compounding behavior
* Ensure incentives are fair, transparent, and contribution-based

📅 Implementation Timeline
* Once approved, the changes will go live after the system update is completed (exact timing will be announced separately)
* The new rules will be updated on the DApp frontend at the same time
* All reward and coefficient calculations will be applied immediately under the new logic
