VotingPowerEconomics

Defined in: packages/canisters/src/declarations/nns/governance_test.d.ts:1248

Parameters that affect the voting power of neurons.

clear_following_after_seconds: [] | [bigint]

Defined in: packages/canisters/src/declarations/nns/governance_test.d.ts:1280

After a neuron has experienced voting power reduction for this amount of time, a couple of things happen:

  1. Deciding voting power reaches 0.

  2. Its following on topics other than NeuronManagement are cleared.

Initially, set to 1/12 years.


neuron_minimum_dissolve_delay_to_vote_seconds

Section titled “neuron_minimum_dissolve_delay_to_vote_seconds”

neuron_minimum_dissolve_delay_to_vote_seconds: [] | [bigint]

Defined in: packages/canisters/src/declarations/nns/governance_test.d.ts:1269

The minimum dissolve delay a neuron must have in order to be eligible to vote.

Neurons with a dissolve delay lower than this threshold will not have voting power, even if they are otherwise active.

This value is an essential part of the staking mechanism, promoting long-term alignment with the network’s governance.


start_reducing_voting_power_after_seconds: [] | [bigint]

Defined in: packages/canisters/src/declarations/nns/governance_test.d.ts:1259

If a neuron has not “refreshed” its voting power after this amount of time, its deciding voting power starts decreasing linearly. See also clear_following_after_seconds.

For explanation of what “refresh” means in this context, see https://dashboard.internetcomputer.org/proposal/132411

Initially, set to 0.5 years. (The nominal length of a year is 365.25 days).
