Everything you need to know about earning moons.

Hello everyone!

English is not my first language, feel free to correct me.

We didn't have many good news lately and we've dumped a lot today - but there is something to look forward to, the best day of the month: Moons Snapshot Day™! (Next wednesday btw)

Moons wiki holds a lot of information and links, but there's no short overview. So for whom this may be relevant, here's a short list of facts I've extracted from Wiki, posts and government proposals. Please correct me in the comments if I'm wrong or if you have additional info.

Moons/ karma ratio:

Last time 1 karma ~ 0.8559 moons (depends on how much karma has been achieved).

Content which will make you receive moons:

• comment in this sub (counting 2x)
• post in this sub (text, counting 1x)
• link post in this sub (counting 0.5x)
• 'comedy' post in this sub (counting 0.1x)
• one of the best memes in r/cryptocurrencymemes ("350 for 1st, 250 for 2nd, 200 for 3rd, 150 for 4th, 50 for 5th")

What will influence the amount of moons you receive:

• deleted posts / comments removed by the mod team do NOT count
• a limit of 1,000 karma for one post or comment
• a limit of 15,000 karma in one distribution cycle (28 days)
• 5% bonus for voting on governance polls (look for the official moons post in moon week!)
• 1.25% bonus for additional voting on governance polls
• there is a penalty (in%) for selling / giving away more than 25% of your moons (moons for special membership don't count)

To keep it simple, I reduced this to information relevant for "normal" users only.

/e Added penalty for selling and counting for comedy posts, corrected 'deleted posts'. Thanks to u/IHaventEvenGotADog, u/pbjclimbing and u/WhereIsTrap!
