RE: Solving Mass Onboarding of Steem. Re-Delegation: A Hard Fork Feature Proposal To Help New Onboarding Projects.

in #steem6 years ago

It has been discussed a decent amount of times before. There is even a GitHub issue for it: https://github.com/steemit/steem/issues/1501

The official dev team is planning to implement something called "delegation pools" which aren't exactly the same thing, but they may cover some of the same use cases.

I think the main hurdle is just that it becomes complex to code, when all of the various corner cases are taken into account. There is also a shortage of capable developers who would actually be able to code it up.

Thanks Tim. We also have the idea of RC delegations being passed around too, but I haven't seen anything 'official' on it yet. I will see if I can get the attention of Michael in chat to find out where they are up to with it all.

Ah, I was just pointed to this issue that relates to RC delegations: https://github.com/steemit/steem/issues/3033

and

https://github.com/steemit/steem/issues/2761

Sounds easier said than don, but....

Who will pay them? What will they actually be paid to do? Who will determine if whatever they are paid to build is done correctly?

I was satirical with that meme.
I am kinda aware that there are more problems in Steem development than meets the eye. Especially in the talents department.

I've so far haven't seen a good "fiverr for coding" done properly, the closest could be Gitcoin, but even then it's not that perfect.
