Adjust Prize distribution on PoolTogether V4 We are targeting a net reduction in total prize distribution to bring the protocol closer to prize sustainability. These reductions were discussed here https://gov.pooltogether.com/t/prize-adjustment-3/2097

Motivation We need to bring the prize distribution closer to sustainability to avoid depletion of treasury resources. Prize distribution can be boosted again later around specific goals / campaigns.

Small improvement to current odds. APR is evenly distributed in different chains - Distribution is optimized in consideration for gas on Avalanche. Overall balanced structure (more prize tiers than current distribution).

Highest number of prizes (over 3,000 $1 prizes). $1 prizes reduce the APR in chains with higher gas costs (see Avalanche example). Overall balanced structure (more prize tiers than current distribution).
