Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:Funding Stabilizer

💡 In simple words: The Funding Stabilizer is a tool that keeps money flowing in a steady, fair way. It smooths out the ups and downs so the platform always has enough support to keep going, like a savings jar that balances good months and slow months.

The Balance Boost is a second algorithm — entirely separate from the bonding curve — that regulates the ratio between Cash Rewards and community pool contributions based on the real needs of the platform. It is non-speculative, transparent, and designed to reflect actual funding dynamics rather than market forces.

The Boost is not about maximizing returns — it is about aligning Credit distribution with what the platform actually needs at each stage of growth.

How the Boost Works

The Boost continuously adjusts the split between:

Personal Credits (Cash Rewards, P2) — held in individual accounts, potentially convertible to CHF
Community pool — funding User Groups, shared Infrastructure, collective projects (including Miles Credits for services)

The ratio changes based on the platform's funding/costs ratio. This is a continuous curve — there is no fixed cap, no sudden thresholds, no arbitrary percentages.

The Sequence: Miles First, Then Cash

The Boost follows a defined sequence:

First: Miles Credits increase — In early stages, more Credits flow to the community pool (Miles Credits for services). The platform needs community engagement more than it needs to reward individual funders.
Then: Cash Rewards increase — As the platform grows and subscription revenue rises, more Credits flow to personal accounts (Cash Rewards). Funders who waited are progressively rewarded.

This sequence ensures the platform builds real utility first, then returns value to funders who made that utility possible.

No Fixed Cap — Continuous Curve

Unlike static split models, the Boost uses a continuous curve. At no point is there a hard cap on Cash Rewards or a fixed percentage. The curve is:

Linked to the funding/costs ratio (more funding relative to costs → more Cash Rewards flow)
Responsive to real operational data, not speculation
Published and auditable — community members can verify the calculation

The Reconquest of Business Management by the People

The Boost mechanism embodies a core WikiDeal principle: the reconquest by the people of business management. By making the Cash/Miles ratio transparent and need-driven, WikiDeal eliminates the usual "platform takes as much as possible" dynamic. The algorithm serves the community, not shareholders.

Non-speculative: ratio changes based on real needs, not market sentiment
Transparent: formula published, auditable, subject to Open Call review
At-cost: no extraction beyond what the platform needs to operate
Community-first: Miles Credits flow first, ensuring community utility is built before personal returns are maximized

Relationship to Other Mechanisms

The Boost is a companion to the bonding curve, not part of it:

Bonding curve → determines total Credits generated per CHF
Boost mechanism → determines how those Credits are split (Cash vs. community)
Subscription model → provides the revenue that makes Cash Rewards convertible
