RE: Velocity Hardfork Account Creation Guidelines
If you are referring to the signup faucet at signup.steemit.com, the changes in the hardfork will not really directly affect that. The filtering process that Steemit uses is independent of the process that is used to actually create the (approved) accounts on the blockchain.
The amount of discounted accounts will be determined by the witnesses. The cost of those accounts (in RCs) will depend on the supply and demand. Most likely it will be fairly expensive (in terms of RCs) to actually create discounted accounts.
Yep, out of my area :) however,
If they replenish, couldn't someone with a fair few of RCs batch create?
There will likely be competition among the large stakeholders (with lots of RCs) to claim the available discounted accounts.
Couldn't stacking discounted account claims and later creating batches of accounts interfere with the limitation on the number of discounted accounts that can be created in a given period, set by the witnesses?
Afaik, the limit is on how many discounted accounts can be claimed in a given period.
