Appeals - How much money is needed to appeal a dispute? And to confirm the appeal? What is it for?

• To appeal a dispute or confirm it, the amount required is (Juror_Fee + Draft_Fee + Settle_Fee) x collateral factor x number of jurors.

  • Guardian fees = Juror_Fee

  • Draft fees = Draft_Fee

  • Settlement fees = Settle_Fee

  • Collateral factor = 3 to appeal, 2 to confirm

• So that means:

  • Appeal dispute: ((Juror_Fee + Draft_Fee + Settle_Fee) x 3) x number of jurors

  • Confirm appeal: ((Juror_Fee + Draft_Fee + Settle_Fee) x 2) x number of jurors

Appeal number	Number of guardians drafted
First appeal	9
Second appeal	27
Third appeal	81

• For the final round, the same formulas apply, but costs are reduced by 50%. The number of guardians for the final round is computed as total active stake / min active balance.
