RE: EOS Onboarding - Number of accounts created since snapshot

in #eos6 years ago

A differentiation needs to be made between new accounts and new users. There is an incentive to create new accounts by people who are already invested in EOS because they could have potential value because of the name system. Unfortunately this value will not be realised unless

  1. EOS becomes attractive to new users,
  2. There is a market which allow the trade of named accounts using some protected form of purchase
  3. There is a one click method of changing the private key on sold accounts. I know it is currently possible to do but it it is intimidating to most people.

But I digress. There is currently a barrier for new users of EOS and I believe that unless something is done to remove that barrier we will screw our ecosystem.

Very good points added! Currently the incentive for actual new users isn't that big, and if you just want to have the coin and a few airdrops.
