# GENE Reduction Mechanism

Status of GENE weight adjustment rules and the need for current official parameters.

## Current V1.2 documentation status

GINTEL's October 2026 project overview explains that **GENE creates effective weight through automatic staking**, and that GTL distribution is intended to reflect each participant's share of network-wide weight.

However, **the new project overview does not state a specific daily GENE reduction percentage or deduction time**.

For that reason, the earlier description of a **1% daily reduction at 00:00 (UTC+8)** is not carried forward as a confirmed current rule.

## What the latest presentation confirms

* GENE is the rights and effective-weight unit.
* GENE participates in the proposed automatic-staking mechanism.
* Effective GENE weight determines proportional GTL distribution through the described DPoS framework.

Any decay, reduction, expiration, adjustment, recovery or replenishment rules should be added only after confirmation through the current official GENE mechanism documentation.
