RE: Hosts of Contests (without club status) Demanding a Club status
Yes, I touched on multiple topics because I read all the comments you received. 😁
It's true, you were talking about the inconsistency of some community curators who ask members to join clubs, but they are the first ones who don't care.
It's bad certainly, but it's also bad to make users think they are mandatory when they are not and in fact it's not written anywhere.
Precisely because I feel the same way as @the-gorilla I think it's time to talk more about it.
A few old users had made interesting proposals, such as buying part of steem through SBDs and then finding a way to burn them by taking them out of circulation.
It has to be a mechanism within the platform to provide for burning, it cannot depend on some users deciding to sacrifice a portion of their rewards.
The problem is not to see if it is burned, every steemit wallet can be controlled by everyone, the real problem is to be sure that no one has the keys to the null wallet and that it cannot be hacked.
It's not impossible, by now burning is used by so many platforms, TronDao itself has been practicing burning for a long time, communicating it daily to its followers on X. In short, I believe that a solution other than the current one can be found. 😜
Happy weekend to you too.
Every wallet can be controlled but the wallet @null is empty.
Not one single Steem ever arrived in it. So I do believe it is important to show/explain where the Steem is transferred to. The auto reply received is from an account/Steemian who earned before the hardfork well and changed the name and owns @null or?
If mining can't be stopped the value can go up or we are satisfied with the balue as it is.
Thanks for the burning info.
🍀♥️
Until now I hadn't been interested in @null because I've always found it an ineffective project done in this way.
But I actually had a look and the portfolio seems to be inactive.
I'd like to understand what happens to those Steems that many users pay to @null thinking they are doing good for the platform.
Most likely we will never find that out but it is the reason why I gave up on it.
All I can think of is that the Steem is transferred to a different account.
@steemchiller is @null hacked?
Don't worry, clearing the balance of the @null account is being handled by the blockchain internally for each block here:
https://github.com/steemchiller/steem/blob/0.23.1-dev/libraries/chain/database.cpp#L3433
The
clear_null_account_balance()method will reset all balances of that account and also subtract the removed amounts from total STEEM and SBD supply:https://github.com/steemchiller/steem/blob/0.23.1-dev/libraries/chain/database.cpp#L1458
This means it is removed before it arrives?
If that's the case why is it said that it's stored in this account?
If this (see above) is possible this also means other/all transactions can be burned/disappear out of sight or?
How come steemworld.org doesn't show the transfers?
Kind of, yes... It arrives internally but is removed directly after that in each block. So there is no way that account can ever have a balance.
That's not correct. It is impossible to store something in that account, because the balance reset happens in every single block.
Not without developers and top witnesses knowing about it. The code is open source and there can't exist a hidden logic exactly because of this. If someone would add something like that in the code, the majority of top witnesses would first need to agree and install that version on their servers for it to become active. No one would risk to run harmful code and lose major exchanges' support, of course, because it could ruin his own investment.
