About this paper

This document describes the Swarm price oracle smart contract, which determines the unit price of storage based on the redistribution game. It introduces a price function where storage rent adapts to supply and demand, measured by the number of honest revealers in neighbourhoods.

The paper defines the reactivity parameter, explains how skipped rounds are treated, and details the exponential adjustment formula for price evolution over rounds.
