> Interestingly I noticed it looks like the 3 month and 1 year return on the leaderboard are not taking into consideration the roundPayoutFactor. I realized this as round 263 was my first round of seeing my 3 month returns on the leaderboard, and round 251 was my first staked round. But my 3 month return for ml\_is\_lyf on the leaderboard is 99.2%, and my performance for round 263 calculated above is 1.934420, which is a 93.4420% return. But you’ll notice if I set all the roundPayoutFactor to 1 (as if there was no payout factor) as I do below, then my calculated return is the same as on the leaderboard, with a performance of 1.991507, which is a 99.1507% 3-month return. I’ll make a separate feedback post about this issue.

yes! It’s quite strange
