What determines the value of a Yap?
There’s 5 fundamentals for understanding what determines the value of a yap.
Pi - primary interaction
Si - secondary interaction
Ci - comment interaction
Vi - voice interaction
Fi - face/video interaction
The primary interaction is the first yap. It determines the topic, thus the category of data that will follow.
The first yap:
begins the succession of yaps
determines the topic of discussion for yaps
determines the likeliness for the category of data that will follow
The value of a Primary interaction (Pi) is determined by the Secondary interaction (Si), the quantity of these secondary interactions multiplied by their quality.
Value of Pi is determined by the Si(n x quality), where ‘n’ = quantity
Pi = nSi / Si
Si = YAPp[total] of all secondary interactions [Ci +Vi + Fi]
Pi = value of primary interaction
nSi = number of secondary interactions
nSic = number of secondary interactions comments
nSiv = number of secondary interactions voice
nSif = number of secondary interactions face/video
Ci = comment quality
Vi = voice quality
Fi = face/video quality
(None of these variables can ever be zero unless there is no interactions on a primary interaction)
How is quality determined?
The quality of a yap is determined via its effectiveness of data content (data captured for vendors [AI]) and the succession of secondary Yap interactions it generates (its virality)
Quality of interaction is determined by engagement, succession of yaps, length, comment, face/video, audio “
Face/Video - Fi
Fi (numeric value) = length + key phrase + video recognition
Voice - Vi
Vi (numeric value) = length + text to speech + key phrase
Comment - Ci
Ci (numeric value) = length + keywords
Comment (Ci) - Quality
Users can earn YAPp through using keywords in their comments on different topics. Topics can also be staked by users, allowing them to earn extra from keywords that are used within topic discussions.
The value of a comment interaction = length (exponential) + keyword
The length is calculated below:
In a comment interaction we add value of the length and value of the keywords.
YAPp = YAPp0ekt
YAPp0= 0.01
2000 characters = apx 500 words
YAPpmax = 0.25 =
0.25 = 0.01 x e500k
ln(2500) = ln(e500k)
ln(25) = 500k
k = 6.43 x 10-3 = 0.00643
For the length of a comment interaction we need exponential growth. We apply an exponential equation to determine k - a constant for the exponential equation. Going from 10 characters to 2,000.
The constant k gives us the ability to determine the amount of YAPp for any number of characters or words.
K is the constant that is multiplied by the length of the comment which allows the rewards for a variable comment length within reward bounds to be calculated.
The minimum (YAPp0) being 0.01 ( if less than 10 characters minimum bound is used).
The maximum (YAPpMax) is 0.025 (if more than 2000 characters or 500 words max bound is used).
In this case the constant is k = 6.43 x 10-3 = 0.00643
Therefore if the YAPpMax was different the K would also change.
Keywords are designed based on relevance to the topics in the Pi (Primary Interaction).
Keyword staking pool: Example
Yap topic ‘The Game - The Merge Explained’: KEYWORDS
Ethereum2.0
Proof of stake
Proof of work
Blockchain mechanisms
Mining
Validators
Consensus
Nodes
Transactions
Blocks
These keywords are generated by the API, reconfigured, and then broadcasted to the blockchain. They are held by the API for only the time period of a transaction on the YappaFi network (milliseconds) in order to assure that off-chain data does not cause anomalies on-chain.
If a user additionally decides to stake $YPA on the topic of ‘The Merge’, they unlock the ability to earn a % of all transactions that utilize keywords from this topic.
These APIs can be high, as pool period can be decreased so that only engaged users can take advantage of earnings.
Keyword staking pool is designed by topics as it allows groups to stake their interest in topics.
These keywords are assigned automatically by the API and are hidden from users to stop exploitation.
In a given topic there’s a range of keywords associated with it. The words are associated with the specific topic and the broad topic.
Users using the keywords are rewarded for engaging with the topic..
The raw data (YAPp) value should be increased by 5% per use case of keywords if they’re using the keywords appropriately.
ONLY NODE HOLDERS CAN CHOOSE TOPICS
Opens up a new method to earn income. Node holders in specific industries (e.g. womens fashion) can stimulate topic discussion by increased earning through keywords through staking of the topic, thus generating an income for people yapping in their community.
Keyphrase Marketplace
We aim to set the base at 12 topics with 10% APY each. Only Vendors with Ethereum Nodes can choose a topic. If we have more than 12 vendors with nodes. This will initiate a topic bid where Vendors can bid for the topic slot.
EXAMPLE 1:
‘Proof of stake is going to transform the way transactions are verified on the blockchain’.
Keywords used:
proof of stake
transactions
blockchain
Appropriateness of use:
used in sentence✔️
used within succession of each other ✔️
forms a viable statement ✔️
forms sentence with 15 different words ✔️
(allows YappaFi to monitor whether a user is trying to farm keywords by placing them in unnatural succession)
Raw data value (based on length): 0.011 YAPp
3 keywords: 15% (increase on raw data value YAPp through each keyword at 5% each)
NEW YAPp Value based on KEYWORDS = 0.017 YaPp
EXAMPLE 2:
Ethereum’ has had its days running the PoW mechanism as miners are no longer essential for forming, signing, and adding blocks to the chain. It’s much more efficient now that this process can be authorized by ethereum 2.0 validators in consensus groups by electing nodes to oversee these transactions.’
Keywords used:
Ethereum
PoW
Consensus
Nodes
Miners
Mechanism
Validators
Ethereum 2.0
Blocks
Raw data value (based on length): 0.014 YAPp
13 keywords: 45% increase of YAPp Value
NEW YAPp Value based on KEYWORDS = 0.2
MAX YAPp SCENARIO - YAPp Max = 500 words
Raw Data Value = 0.25
15 Keywords = 75%
New Max Value = 0.44
Therefore max theoretical reward of YAPp one can achieve per comment is 0.44 YAPp
The reward system is designed so that the highest achievable reward for a comment is equal to the lowest achievable reward for a voice.
Users will first have the earnings of YAPp paused if negative or copycat yaps are detected.
KEY PHRASES FOR AUTHENTICATION AUDIO & VIDEO YAPS
General phrases associated with topic
Examples:
‘Proof of work and proof of stake use algorithms to validate cryptocurrency on a blockchain network.’
‘The main difference between PoS and PoC is how they choose and qualify users to add transactions.’
Key phrases can be determined from the Pi or by staking an interest (cross references with phrases mentioned by other users in yap thread and also phrases stored in interest pool by API)
A “ key phrase “ will be limited to 20 words and there will be a max of 3 key phrases per yap registered by API. The “key phrases “ allow the API to know that the user is engaged and hence give them a reward.
Key Phrases will be limited to video and audio allowing for unique and contextual use of vendor phrases E.g. “ JUST DO IT “ would allow a vendor to have videos of users using the phrase in context, with our full access data stack limited to Node holders. Use cases:
This would allow vendors an increased level of targeting and potentially the ability for vendors who are forward thinking to create challenges for users
Rewards and NFTs for users who fall under the remit of usage of phrases with consistency. Collectively the use of subject specific terminology should allow for rewards of up to 5% more per adequate use per yap.
Keyword Auction
Influencers/Users will have the ability to stake $YPA on keywords that they can suggest. Influencers/ Users can select words e.g. “ Air Force One “ the top 12 words per region will receive the staked tokens from the words that fell outside the top 12. Therefore encouraging users to talk about topics using keywords as this will encourage other users to stake on what appears to be the most used / trending / popular word.
Audio Rewards
Voice - Vi
Vi YAPp (value) = length(time) + text to speech + key phrase
For Audio Yaps the length variable is time (the length of time of a yap).
Vi(Audio) YAPp0 Min is 0.1 = (10s) 10 Seconds (If less than 10 seconds minimum bound is used).
Vi(Audio) YAPpMax Max is 0.6 = (60s) 60 Seconds (if more than 60 seconds maximum bound is used).
For the length of an Audio interaction we need exponential growth. We apply an exponential equation to determine k - a constant for the exponential equation. Going from 10 seconds to 60 seconds.
The constant k gives us the ability to determine the amount of YAPp for any length of an audio yap.
K is the constant that is multiplied by the length of the comment which allows the rewards for a variable comment length within reward bounds to be calculated.
In this case the constant is k = 0.03 (0.0298) for Vi (AUDIO).
Therefore if the YAPpMax was different, the ‘K’ would also change.
AUDIO Example:
“Proof of stake is going to transform the way transactions are verified on the blockchain. Ethereum has had its days running the PoW mechanism as miners are no longer essential for forming, signing, and adding blocks to the chain. It’s pretty efficient that this process can be authorized by ethereum 2.0 validators in consensus groups by electing nodes to oversee these transactions.”

Therefore max theoretical reward of YAPp one can achieve per Vi (voice) is 0.6 YAPp
FACE/VIDEO REWARDS
Face/Video = Fi
Fi YAPp Value = length(time) + key phrase + video recognition
For Video Yaps the length variable is time (the length of time of a yap).
Fi(Video) YAPp0 Min is 0.55 = (10s) 10 Seconds (If less than 10 seconds minimum bound is used) = $0.013
Fi(Video) YAPpMax Max is 0.98 = (60s) 60 Seconds (if more than 60 seconds maximum bound is used) = $0.024
For the length of Video Interaction we need exponential growth. We apply an exponential equation to determine k - a constant for the exponential equation. Going from 10 seconds to 60 seconds.
The constant k gives us the ability to determine the amount of YAPp for any length of a video yap.
K is the constant that is multiplied by the length of the comment which allows the rewards for a variable comment length within reward bounds to be calculated.
In this case the constant is k = 0.009 for Fi (VIDEO).
Therefore if the YAPpMax was different, the ‘K’ would also change.
FACE/VIDEO Example:
“Proof of stake is going to transform the way transactions are verified on the blockchain. Ethereum has had its days running the PoW mechanism as miners are no longer essential for forming, signing, and adding blocks to the chain. It’s pretty efficient that this process can be authorized by ethereum 2.0 validators in consensus groups by electing nodes to oversee these transactions.”

For every authentic YAP creator that starts the thread in cases where there is an interaction this would amplify the YAPp Rewards alongside initial first interactions for users joining the comment thread.
Example:
You a comment (c), audio (v), or video (f): v Pick 1 2 or 3: 2 0.55 Begin new succession (Y/n): n End succession (v/n): n You a comment (c), audio(v), or video (f): f Pick 1 2 or 3: 2 1.34 Begin new succession (y/n): Y You a comment (c), audio (v), or video (f): f Pick 1 2 or 3: 3 2.24 Begin new succession (v/n): Y You a comment (c), audio (v), or video (f): V Pick 1 2 or 3: 1 2.54 Begin new succession (y/n): n End succession (y/n): Y 1.968503937007874 YAPP End succession (y/n): n You a comment (c), audio (v), or video (f): C Pick i 2 or 3: 1 3.24 Begin new succession (v/n): n End succession (v/n): n You a comment (c), audio (v), or video (1): C Pick 1 2 or 3: 2 3.4800000000000004 Begin new succession (Y/n): n End succession (y/n): Y 1.7241379310344827 YAPP End succession (y/n): Y 1.4084507042253522 YAPP
A user interacts with another user’s post via Video YAP so this user becomes a secondary interaction (Si) the score form this YAP in this instance is
1.968 YAPp this secondary interaction adds value to the initial primary interaction in the thread.
This value is dependant on the length and quality (further interactions, quality of data eg. Video (Fi) ranking higher than text comments (Ci)
Scenario 1:
Initial comment is a text comment (Ci) valued at 0.55 YAPp = $0.013 the comment then gets secondary interaction.
Video (Fi) primary user reward 1.34 YAPp
Video (Fi) primary user reward 2.24 YAPp
Audio (Vi) primary user reward 2.54 YAPp
Giving the initial creator of the thread who initially was rewarded 0.55 YAPp = $0.013 for a text comment (Ci) now receives a reward of 3.24 YAPp = $0.081 because of the quality of the secondary interactions in the thread.
Scenario 2:
Initial comment is a Video comment (Fi) valued at 0.55 YAPp = $0.013 the comment then gets secondary interaction.
Video (Fi) primary user reward 0.9 YAPp
Video (Fi) primary user reward 1.8 YAPp
Video (Fi) primary user reward 2.7 YAPp
Video (Fi) primary user reward 3.6 YAPp
Video (Fi) primary user reward 4.5 YAPp = $0.0832
RESULT 3.33 YAPp from thread
The original creator of the thread who initially was rewarded 0.55 YAPp = $0.013, the minimum for a video comment (Fi), now receives a reward of 3.33 YAPp = $0.0832 because of the quality of the secondary interactions in the thread.
YAPp to $YPA CONVERSION
Each month 2,940,000 $YPA tokens will be released to the ecosystem in order to convert YAPp to $YPA.
YAPp is given to the user after a transaction that can only be verified by the blockchain. YAPp will have an unlimited supply, allowing us to turn YAPp tokens into $YPA at any given time as long as there is a transaction to support it.
When the YAPp is converted by the user, the YAPp is burnt from the supply.
However, any users who fail to convert will have the YAPp burnt but the $YPA reward will be locked for a period of 90 days before being burnt. Users have 90 days to claim $YPA rewards.
Any conversions of YAPp to $YPA cause a partial value burn mechanism for $YPA.
Scenario 1:
1,500,000 YAPp have been issued
$YPA monthly supply is 2,940,000
Therefore 2,940,000 is divided by 1,500,00 = 1.96 conversion rate
Therefore for every 1 YAPp the user will be rewarded 1.96 $YPA
With a burn rate of 1.96 on the amount issued and is taken from all users equally.
2,940,000 with a burn rate of 1.96% (57,624) supply issued is 2,882,376
After the YAPp amount equals the $YPA amount, the burn rate will be set to 2% of issued amount. After 2 years we will allow users to vote whether the Burn calculation is added to the 2% flat burn rate or if the model is to be kept the same.
Scenario 2:
8,643,596 YAPp is issued
2,940,000 $YPA is issued
Therefore 2,940,000 is divided by 8,643,596 = 0.34 conversion rate
Therefore every 1 YAPp the user will be rewarded 0.34 $YPA
With a burn rate of 2% issued and taken from all users equally
2,940,000 with a burn rate of 2% (58,800) supply issued is 2,882,376
MAX EARNINGS will be 12,000 $YPA tokens which is currently equivalent to a $300 monthly cap will be initiated and will be capped via utilization of KYC and Polygon ID.
Excess YAPp users will have the ability to reward both advertisers, publishers and other users, or exchange for rewards for vendors or NFTs.
Users can gift/send other users YAPp in exchange for access to content and other offerings from the content creator. Sending YAPp will also give the user a chance of a reward.
