 Let's start by calculating the Mana in the system generated by holding tokens $\text{Mana Holders}(n)$ until epoch $n$.
 
 $$
-\text{Mana Holders}(n)=\frac{\text{Token Supply}*\text{Generation Rate}}{1-\text{Decay per Epoch}}* 2^{\text{Slots per Epoch Exp}-\text{Generation Rate Exp}} (1-\text{Decay per Epoch}^{n+1})
+\text{Mana Holders}(n)=\frac{\text{Token Supply} * \text{Generation Rate}}{1-\text{Decay per Epoch}} * 2^{\text{Slots per Epoch Exp}-\text{Generation Rate Exp}} (1-\text{Decay per Epoch}^{n+1})
 $$
 
 with $\text{Decay per Epoch}=\text{Decay per Year}^{\frac{\text{Seconds per Epoch}}{\text{Seconds per Year}}}$.
