- When appealing in the court, the negative karma removal cost goes up by a factor of 4 as follows:
- 1 negative karma: - 100 to 400 points ~ equivalent to 1-4 ALTS
- 2 negative karma: - 400 to 1,000 points ~ equivalent to 4-10 ALTS
- 3 negative karma: - 1,600 to 4,000 points ~ equivalent to 16-40 ALTS
- 4 negative karma - 6,400 to 16,000 points ~ equivalent to 64-160 ALTS
- 5 negative karma - 25,600 to 64,000 points ~ equivalent to 256-640 ALTS
I decided to calculate the cost of
appealing negative karma beyond -5 out of curiosity, here is what I discovered.
// Given that
100 points = 1 ALTS and cost goes up by a factor of 4:
5 negative karma: - 25,600 to 64,000 points ~ equivalent to 256-640 ALTS
6 negative karma: - 102,400 to 256,000 points ~ equivalent to 1K-2.5K ALTS
7 negative karma: - 409,600 to 1,024,000 points ~ equivalent to 4K-10.2K ALTS
8 negative karma: - 1,638,400 to 4,096,000 points ~ equivalent to 16.3K-40.9K ALTS
9 negative karma: - 6,553,600 to 16,384,000 points ~ equivalent to 65.5K-163.8K ALTS
10 negative karma: - 26,214,400 to 65,536,000 points ~ equivalent to 262.1K-655.3K ALTS
To put this cost into perspective, as of writing sell orders are valued at
0.0002 ALTS/ETH,
// With a current Ether price of approximately $550:
1 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 1-4 ALTS ~ value 0.0002 - 0.0008 ETH ~
$0.11-$0.442 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 4-10 ALTS ~ value 0.0008 - 0.002 ETH ~
$0.44-$1.103 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 16-40 ALTS ~ value 0.0032 - 0.008 ETH ~
$1.76-$4.394 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 64-160 ALTS ~ value 0.0128 - 0.032 ETH ~
$7.03-$17.585 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 256-640 ALTS ~ value 0.0512 - 0.128 ETH ~
$28.12-$70.316 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 1K-2.5K ALTS ~ value 0.2 - 0.5 ETH ~
$109-$2747 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 4.1K-10.2K ALTS ~ value 0.82 - 2.04 ETH ~
$488-$1.1K8 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 16.3K-40.9K ALTS ~ value 3.26 - 8.18 ETH ~
$1.7K-$4.4K9 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 65.5K-163.8K ALTS ~ value 13.1 - 32.76 ETH ~
$7.1K-$17.910 negative karma: ~ equivalent to 262.1K-655.3K ALTS ~ value 52.42 - 131.06 ETH ~
$29.1K-$71.6K
The likelihood of users having over 100K or >1 million points (to remove 6 or 10 negative karma) is unlikely,
Therefore there is an easier way to remove negative karma with payment in ALTS:
Removing negative karma with ALTS (and points):
- To remove negative karma the easiest way send 3 ALTS/per negative karma, read the announcement here.
- Send the following number of ALTS tokens to this address: 0x2143F7146F0AadC0F9d85ea98F23273Da0e002Ab
- 1 negative karma: - 3 ALTS ~ equivalent to 300 points ~ upto 25% discount
- 2 negative karma: - 6 ALTS ~ equivalent to 600 points ~ upto 40% discount
- 3 negative karma: - 9 ALTS ~ equivalent to 900 points ~ 40-75% discount
- 4 negative karma - 12 ALTS ~ equivalent to 1,200 points ~ 80-90% discount
- 5 negative karma - 15 ALTS ~ equivalent to 1,500 points ~ 90-95% discount
- Note: You will also lose some of your points. Once transaction sent, pm admin.
So if for example if you have -10 karma, instead of paying with 26.2-65.5 million points that you almost certainly won't have.
It'd cost you 30 ALTS (0.006 ETH / $3.33), instead of the equivalent of 262.1K-655.3K ALTS (52.42-131.06 ETH /$29.1K-$71.6K)
This would make it a 98.98-99.99% discount by paying with our forum token to have -10K removed

Summary Info1 ALTS = 100 Points
1 -Karma = 3 ALTS
1 ALTS = 0.33 -Karma
1 Point = 0.01 ALTS
