address these three points in details:<\/p><h4>(1) Pledge<\/h4><p>The size of our pledge reflects our commitment to both the stake pool and the Cardano eco-system.<\/p><p>In an ideal world, all the stake pools will have as large a pledge as possible, so that the delegators can receive maximum reward.\u00a0 This is because the larger the pledge, the larger the rewards, while keeping all other parameters constant.<\/p><p>However, this is impractical due to two points:<\/p><ul><li>To have a large pledge, the operator must buy the required amount of ADA. Not all operators can afford these purchases. To this end, the Cardano eco-system ends up with fewer small-size operators and more large-scale multi-pool operators. This is unfortunately against the spirit of decentralization and the promotion of small-business operations.<\/li><li>The marginal increase in rewards tapers off dramatically with increasing pledge. As an example, the\u00a0 extra rewards generated by a 2m pledge vs a 200k pledge is visible, but not significant.<\/li><\/ul><div>Hence, with the <a href=\"https:\/\/kopipool.com\/zh\/kopi-philosophy\/\">KOPI philosophy of decentralization<\/a>, our stake pool will commit to a comfortable pledge to secure rewards for delegators.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><h4>(2) Fixed Fees<\/h4><p>Fixed fees should ideally reflect the operating costs of the stake pool.<\/p><p>Operating costs include the costs of hardware, cloud-hosting, web-hosting, electricity, broadband, etc.<\/p><p>In the interest of delegators, it is the operator&#8217;s responsiblity to minimize costs without compromising on performance.<\/p><p>It will be fun for a stake pool to run the fastest CPU, with the fanciest GPU, until you realize these enhancements add substiantial costs and only contribute <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">minimally<\/span> to pool performance.<\/p><p>Similarly, it will be technically awesome to run a pool with fifteen relays on all six continents, until you realize it comes with both financial costs and computing costs. And again, its contribution to pool performance is <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">minimal<\/span>.<\/p><p>Remember that Cardano does not require a computing arms race unlike BTC.<\/p><p>The Chinese saying \u201c\u4e0d\u7ba1\u9ed1\u732b\u767d\u732b\uff0c\u6349\u5230\u8001\u9f20\u5c31\u662f\u597d\u732b\u201d is particularly relevant here. It does not matter if it&#8217;s a black cat or a white cat, as long as it catches mice, it is a great cat!<\/p><p>As long as performance is not compromised, KOPI will use the 80-20 rule to minimize our operating costs and maximize your rewards.<\/p><h4>(3) Margin<\/h4><div>Margin is the variable fees allocated to operators before rewards are split among delegators.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>For the delegators, you should want to see minimal margin.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>For the operators, you can, but won&#8217;t, set sky high margins, because free market will decide your pool&#8217;s attractiveness.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>KOPI believes that margin should be a fair reward to operators to compensate for their dedication in running, monitoring, diagnosing, and upgrading their pools. Without stake pool operators, there will not be a secure Cardano eco-system.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>Moreover, time and efforts are required to write up blog posts, send tweets and in general, keep the public up to date about happenings within the Cardano sphere.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>KOPI will set a fair and competitive margin to maximize your rewards.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Delegate to KOPI As a pool operator, KOPI&#8217;s responsibility to our delegators is to provide consistent rewards.
