v1.14.0 Cardano Reward Calculator

[katomm]

The completely rewritten reward calculator, introduced in SPO table talk, is back on https://cardano.org/calculator/ and comes with various sections:

1. Basic Calculator

Displays the calculator and allow the user to input values to determine the expected % annual yield and expected ada return over a year.

2. Stake Pools

Specify up to 3 staking pool tickets to replace the representative pool in the first section. By adding the staking pool tickets the calculator then shows the expected return for these pools.

3. Stake Pool Parameters

Show the parameters of the selected stake pools and let the user change these parameters. The front-end will then show how the rewards are expected to change with the new parameters for the stake pools (e.g. minimum pool cost, margin, stake and pledge).

4. Blockchain Parameters

Show the static blockchain parameters (which can not be changed e.g. total supply of ada) and the dynamic parameters (that can be changed through a governance vote and/or CIP e.g. the k and the a0 parameters). The user is able to change the dynamic parameters in the front-end and the calculator recalculate the new rewards for the pools selected in the previous sections. The purpose of this section is to inform the users of how blockchain parameters can impact the rewards.

Besides the calculator the Plomin hard fork was added to the hardforks on https://cardano.org/hardforks/ together with many news articles.
