The prefunded voting balance a contender pays into a contest on the contested index of
document_type_name in the contract contract_id: the moderation fund for a moderation
election (an electedCharter of the moderation charters contract), the contested document
fund for every other contest. Whatever the votes leave of it is released as processing fees
when the contest is cleaned up.
The prefunded voting balance a contender pays to join a contest on the contested index of
document_type_name in the contract contract_id while the contest holds contenders
contenders: the contest’s fund (required_vote_resolution_fund), doubled once the contest
holds contested_document_contenders_before_fund_doubling contenders and again for every
contested_document_contenders_per_fund_doubling more. From protocol version 14 that is 250
and 50: the first 250 contenders pay the fund, the 251st to the 300th twice it, and the 951st
to the 1,000th, the last a contest accepts, 32,768 times it (3,276.8 Dash for a DPNS name).
Before 14 every contender pays the fund.
