RE: Thoughts on a Proposal to Buy and Burn STEEM using the DAO
Wow that is really interesting. I have been here since 2016 and I never remember SBDs paying an interest rate... Perhaps it was coded but never actually run? I feel like I would have remembered SBDs paying interest...
I created an infographic back in November, 2016. Here's what I posted at the time:
Obviously, I'm hazy on details, but maybe interest accumulated and paid out once per month? No time now, but maybe I'll check later to see if I can find any payment transactions from the time period.
Update: Found one
Right!
#define STEEM_SBD_INTEREST_COMPOUND_INTERVAL_SEC (60*60*24*30)
Once per 30 days and only if the SBD balance has to by modified.
