Measure the Decred subsidy difference between three and five voters
A historical reward model for Decred must account for voter participation as well as height. Running the same height with two voter counts isolates that input.
Model two valid participation cases
For a mainnet historical fixture, keep the height fixed at 850000 and compare three with five voters. Read the proof-of-work, proof-of-stake, developer and total components in both responses.
dcrctl getblocksubsidy 850000 3
dcrctl getblocksubsidy 850000 5
Reconcile against the mined block
Use the actual voter count from the block for a production ledger. The difference between the two hypothetical responses is a participation scenario, not extra issuance to add to either total. Rules can change by height, so repeat with the historical block's own height rather than a contemporary one.
