- [4015908-038](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/4015908-038) [design/argued] -- Non-linear reward structures using weighting, tiers, or logarithmic curves counteract centralization of token supply by decentralizing disproportionate returns so that rewards do not scale linearly with the amount of liquidity a user holds.
  > Fair launch protocols can create some form of weighting, tier, and/or logarithmic curves for rewards. This decentralizes disproportionate returns, so they do not scale linearly with the amount user liquidity a user has.

- [4015908-039](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/4015908-039) [design/argued] -- A fair launch rewards protocol can measure ethical conduct by whether a user engages with the protocol consistently, invests, and votes over time, while users who merely use the network for yield farming may not qualify because they lack engagement.
  > Such ethical conduct can measure whether the user engages with the protocol consistently, invests, and votes on the fair launch protocol network over time. By contrast, users who merely use the network for yield farming may not qualify as they lack engagement.
