RE: Gridcoin III proposal comments
I think everyone has to keep in mind that not everyone into crypto does it because some libertarian fantasies of escaping control from the goverment . Specially if we are talking GRC.(just like i use linux because it is objetively better for my needs, not because software freedom)
I don't have strong feelings one way or another, although i think it would much better to not polarize a community that is at its core altruistic volunteers, as it can backfire heavily. But if it were to apply i would like to have wealth masternodes and magnitude masternodes. As both have shown dedication and the means to maintain it. I also think the reward for running a masternode is waaay to high.
i think there is a difference between seeking "libertarian fantasies" and acknowledging flaws in old systems and looking to fix the flaws or improve the system.
"What is needed is an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust, allowing any two willing parties to transact directly with each other without the need for a trusted third party."
masternodes seem like trusted third parties, or financial institutions.
I concur ..
