Importance of Large Deposits

Increasing the Privacy Set

The Nata Network user base has been growing rapidly, with over 7500 unique users at the time of publishing. Reviewing the metrics tracked on Dune.com, the average deposit amount is relatively small, which does not allow for sufficient privacy for larger transactions as there are fewer of them.

Why are large deposits important to increase the privacy set?

Referring to the diagram below, the 5 ETH depositor has no privacy when they perform a 2 ETH withdrawal because they are the only possible user.

In the diagram below, the 1 ETH withdrawn could have been from any of the five users, resulting in better privacy for the withdrawal.

New Rewards for Epoch 6

Starting with Epoch 6, eNATA rewards have been changed from 10M to 20M. Half of the rewards are dedicated to users that perform Max Deposits. A user’s share of rewards at the end of the epoch are calculated by how many Max Deposits they performed using ETH, MATIC, and DAI during the epoch. A user could maximize rewards by performing max deposits of all three assets for every Nata block during the epoch. The Nata Network has max deposit limits of 5 ETH, 10K MATIC, and 10K DAI. Large depositors will increase everyone’s privacy and therefore will be rewarded for their contribution. If you are interested in learning more about the Earn program, check out: Link
