# Earning Caps

In order to prevent bot and cheating system, while incentivizing power users, every **Standard Period**, a Power Number of UCC is calculated based on the average of consumption by the top 5% of active users.

Therefore, the number of Consumed Content Unit CCU is calculated with the formula below:

$$
CCU=\max \left( 1, \left( \frac{CCU\_{5%}}{CCU\_{real}} \right)^{CCU\_{real}}\right)
$$

$$CCU\_{5%}$$**:** average consumption of the top 5% of active users (last Standard Period)​

$$CCU\_{real}$$**:** number of Consumed Content Units reported by different players

​Then, the distribution of the consumption is defined by the **Chi-squared distribution** ($$\chi^2$$​-distribution).
