@hyle suggested I post this here: I did an extreme deep dive into the DEGEN Tips allowance algorithm, and wrote up an FAQ. There's even a simulation on Desmos with all the equations loaded. Some surprises: you can overtip 3%, there's an age boost, cast count matters! https://paragraph.xyz/@rjs/degen-tips-ultimate-faq

V6 DEGEN Tips FAQ update. 2 changes were made. #1 dropped the allowance multiplier from 0.25 to 0.15 i.e. a 40% reduction in allowances, ceteris paribus. #2 increased the over-tipping allowance. This is a galaxy brain move that has a number of effects. Read for deets. https://paragraph.xyz/@rjs/degen-tips-ultimate-faq
