Mediacoin uses the abovementioned Proof-of-Activity (PoA) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus algorithms. The number of tokens credited to you depends on the the user’s balance. That is, the more MDC peers have on their account, the higher reward they offer for seeding traffic.
Reward formula:
resultVolume = realVolume * kPoS(userBalance)

, whereas
realVolume - the peer’s actual upload volume for a certain period
resultVolume - the total upload volume for a certain period, including PoS coefficient;
kPoS(x) = 1 + x * 0.85e-6

For example:
kPos(0) = 1.0
kPos(1M) ≈ 1.85
kPos(3M) ≈ 3.55
kPos(5M) ≈ 5.25

This means that 2 million MDC coins on the account will double the reward, 3 million MDC coins will triple the reward.
The reward (issue of coins for a certain period of time) is evenly distributed between peers in proportion to their resultVolume.
Note! The PoS algorithm makes it even more profitable to hold MDC coins. This is a good investment opportunity and a method of obtaining high rewards.
