Energy Utils

This package is part of IQ Protocol JS SDK.

The package provided various utility functions for energy calculation.

Installation

yarn add @iqprotocol/energy

Usage

import { calculateEnergyCap } from '@iqprotocol/energy';

const params = {
  power: 100n,
  initialValue: 50n, // power at t0
  gapHalvingPeriod: 86400,
  t0: 1629906900,
  t1: 1629906900 + 86400
};

const energyCap = calculateEnergyCap(params); // 75n 

Energy & Power

In IQ protocol Power is the reinterpreted pTokens balance that is responsible for Energy generation. Simply 1 pToken = 1 Unit of Power. Whereas the Energy is a spendable asset that is generated over time by the Power.

Linear Energy the actual energy value at the specific time. As the name implies, it changes linearly over time.

Energy Cap is the potential maximum possible energy value at specific time. It corresponds to the IQ protocol Proof Of Hold.

Effective Energy is the current available energy. It is the lowest value between the current linear energy value and energy cap.
