Why are people pretending Linkpool is "diluting the supply" and LPL holders are "taking a haircut"?

The migration ratio from LPL to SDL is 1:05. That's the opposite of dilution, the token supply is literally cut in half.

And the proportion of total supply held by the community remains the exact same: about 30%. Nobody's getting a haircut at all.

Pic related.
The total supply goes from 100M (LPL) to 50M (SDL).
So it's halved.
The community held 30k LPL, and they're getting 15K SDL.
So that's also halved.

This doesn't seem to be in the blog, but the deep dive does have this info.
The total supply is indeed 260M.

I don't know enough about how Linkpool works to understand what the fuck is going on, but in absolute terms, the proportion of tokens held by the community does go down significantly; but at least the proportion held by Linkpool itself goes down at the exact same rate.
So at the very least it looks like Linkpool is fucking themselves over exactly as hard as the community (if this is indeed detrimental).

Revenue sharing wasn't what I thought I was buying when I invested in the Linkpool ICO. Those drops were nice but thought I was buying the ability to stake my LINK with node operators. As time went on I feared I was only going to have the ability to stake in Linkpool's own node which would make for a very small allotment. What has happened with LPL - SDL seems to me to be the solution to this problem. SDL fullfills the vision provided two conditions:
1. Chainlink does not ultimately facilitate unlimited staking for free and what happens today is only for developing staking and the chinlink "supreme court". I find this likely.
2. Any ability to stake with stake dot link without the SDL token remains very limited. This seems to me the crucial part.

Provided these it ultimately makes the SDL a facilitator of the LINK staking apy minus comissions ~4%? and the SDL's value scales positively quadratically with the network and dilutes linearilly with the growth of the stake dot link membership.

I don't think the dilution was avoidable, other nodes needed to get on board. I don't think revenue sharing is sustainable nor the original vision of Linkpool.

If LPL investors are to be screwed I think it is yet to come. I don't see why they would be though. The controlling share, the nodes, want SDL to gain value.

The amount of tokens is a distraction from the fact that Linkpool is rugpulling people by no longer offering revenue sharing, which was the entire value proposition of LPL.

glad i found this thread, i hadn't read the deep dive before this either.

while it's true that LPL holders are getting diluted with respect to their allocation of total tokens, they're now partial owners of a much, much bigger enterprise. rather than getting 50% of LP profits proportional to your LPL holdings, you're now getting 20% of the profits of EVERY node that joins up at a little more than a third of the proportion of your previous LPL ownership (100MM LPL to 260MM SDL). see pic related. i don't see how LP could have convinced more NOPs to join without incentivizing them somehow (like, say, handing them 10M SDL tokens right out the gate), so i'm not surprised there. what no one knows yet is how the revenue stream will compare to the old way we expected it to happen (i.e., 50% of LP profits rather than 20% of stake.link profits).

this is absolutely a massive alteration to how we all thought it would work, but i'm certainly not going to throw my hands up and say they're all criminals and we deserve our money back. markets are fucking stupid, i'll be waiting to see how this plays out. it was never my intention to own LPL as a growth vehicle anyway, it was always about access to a revenue stream that i couldn't get without it.

Initial estimates of "access" were that you needed around 2.5 LPL to stake 1 LINK with Linkpool. As it stands now I think 25k LPL after migration will let you stake something like 300-400 LINK. It's almost completely worthless in terms of utility and costs way more than the LINK it lets you stake in the first place.

>In exchange for node operators contributing their staking allocations into the stake.link protocol they receive SDL tokens which represent their proportionate allocation contribution.

>A delegation fee of 20% is applied to all LINK rewards generated by the pool, which is distributed to SDL stakers. This fee can change through governance, depending on various factors, including incentive programs and the targeted end-user reward rate. For node operators to want to participate, they need incentives to receive delegated collateral. For stakers to participate, they need to receive equivalent rewards for putting their tokens to work in providing economic security and value.

Basically instead of earning a portion of fee revenue from one node you get a portion of STAKING commission from many nodes. But only 25 million tokens can be staked and commissions are small anyway, while the amount of SDL tokens is large (especially with this dilution).

No, that's not correct. Nodes receive oracle rewards (funded by Sergey's dumps) which is the bootstrap for fees that would normally come from dapps, and helps pay for gas costs and other operating costs. The 5% staking reward for community members is separate from that, and nodes only collect a small commission from that 5%.

We've known for a year now that many nodes are self sufficient based on dapp fees.

This is not true. Sergey said that CERTAIN oracle networks on CERTAIN chains are profitable, this doesn't mean nodes are overall profitable for all of their operations, it means something like the BNB/USD feed on BSC is turning a profit because the chain's fees are low and usage is high.

SDL holder payout = ( staking pool max capacity ) * ( staking reward) * reward fee = 787500 * 0.05 * 0.2 = 7875 link

to be shared proportional to the total SDL staking pool. Ok? So like 0.1 link for retail.

What's worthwhile is the equation: the first two variables are dictated by CL. If NOPs or the council show up with their own pools (at a different risk/reward), a second payout is added to existing payouts. If v0.2 is active, the original payout changes also.

The 3% platform fee to LinkPool is bullshit (2% should stay with SDL 'foundation') as are giving away equity (thus proportional reward payout) to CL and other operators. They have little / no obligations, i.e. leave staking capacity for SDL holders.
