RE: Velocity Hardfork Account Creation Guidelines

in #hf206 years ago
  1. Any stakeholder that has SP can theoretically use the discounted account creation system, although it is likely that only larger stakeholders will have enough RCs to be able to afford it. Anyone who is creating accounts would decide who to give them to.
  2. The number of discounted accounts that will be made available will be set by the witnesses.
  3. Lots of users pay to create accounts for their friends. There are also several other account creation services such as BlockTrades.us and AnonSteem.
  4. When you delegate SP to a user, they will receive the RCs that are associated with the delegated SP. You cannot delegate RCs independently of delegating SP.
  5. I replied to his comment with the info I have on that.
  6. I'm not sure if I understand the question. Does my response to #1 cover it?
Sort:  

@timcliff - I think question 6 is meant to be asking whether a site like Steempeak can add a function to their UI to create accounts on behalf of users logged in to Steempeak via Steemconnect (if the user themselves has enough RCs).

Yes, that could be done.

Just looking for a little additional insight beyond what the article stated.
But maybe i didn't some of my questions well ... very real possibility.

  1. Yep just making sure i had it correct.
  2. Ok so the answer is "we don't know and no one is going to even guess"
    Hope to hear from witnesses what their plan is then.
  3. Yeah blocktrades do not pay for other people's accounts... they get paid to create accounts.
    So it still remains either a user or their friend will pay for their account and now their will be less incentive because they won't see the 3sp in the account.
  4. Thanks for the clarification. That's gonna be a tough one. But i understand the reasoning perfectly.
  5. I'll keep an eye out their if anyone has any more definitive insights what steemit inc may do.
  6. Can a user pay for an account creation of a new user with their available RC?
    Or does it have to come from the sign up portal itself that is implementing the code?

For 6 any user can, provided they have enough RCs.
