RE: Examining MSP-Active. Rewards for Participation aka POI
We know that no matter what, we're going to end up spending time chatting in there. It's not just our hobby, it's also our job. We were transparently granted some pretty big stakes in the white paper, and even though we've agreed not to sell for a full year and keep staked up to curate, having us scoop the majority of POI is far from what we'd like to see happen. So yes, we've taken a hard voluntary nerf in the chatting system. We still make a little bit, and after some time, we will re-evaluate if the heavy percentage makes sense. For right now, since we spend 12-16 hours a day explaining it all... lol, we would be getting a large chunk of it all (like, hilariously large) and it's just not in line with what we're trying to do. You're always welcome to ask us directly during a show or in the pond as well. The blockchain is transparent, but we do our best to be, also~
Thanks for the view from your Perspective Crim. I hope you didn't take my post as complaining. On the contrary, I think it is admirable that you guys are working on finding the most fair way to run things.
On a platform where it seems like Steem Inc is just going to throw their code out there and say "This is what it is", it is refreshing to have a group be ready to make changes as they become relevant. Finding a decent balance is commendable, and I certainly appreciate the efforts!
