Summary
This proposal suggests removing the DNP Device Activation Fee (AKA onboarding fee) from the DAO Utility A Score.
Motivation
Currently, the A factor in the DAO Utility Score equates to Active Device Count multiplied by the current onboarding fee for each device on that network to the fourth root. As currently written, this discourages SubDAO networks from lowering their device onboarding fee, as doing so would lower their A Score. As a result of a decreased A Score, the daily HNT emissions within that SubDAO would decrease.
Further, High onboarding fees make it less affordable for deployers to onboard new devices to that SubDAO network, which creates a higher barrier of entry. As being a network of networks, the Helium Community should encourage the expansion of its SubDAO networks, and make it more affordable for others to join.
