RE: Why Cryptocurrency is Important to Me

hi @culgin

How have you been doing? Since I didn't hear from you, I decided to check your account to see if you're still being active on Steemit.

Im glad to see tht you're still around. Obviously upvoted :)

ps. I wanted to ask you a question. You mind telling me what's your view on latest HF20 introduced on steemit? Did it affect you in any way?

Obviously upvoted.

Hey there! Yup, I am still here :)

I have written a little here and there regarding HF20. I believe it is good in the long term but the immediate effects felt by Steemians are mixed.

The HF brought about 2 changes that I think is essential to make Steem sustainable in the long run. First being resource credits, it is good because it bring about a "cost" element in whatever you do on the blockchain. This helps to curb spams and at the same time make STEEM staking a bit more important.

Second, is the ability to create accounts without spending STEEM. This is good as it allows dApps to implement their own sign up process which, in my opinion, will lead to a better user experience for those dApps.

What I don't like is the harsh limitations set on accounts with zero SP. These accounts are unable to make meaningful interactions on the platform since they do not have enough RCs. I think all accounts should be allowed to at least post once everyday and make at least 10 comments regardless of their SP amount.

I'm currently thinking of an initiative to delegate SP to those accounts with less than 15SP. Hopefully this will encourage more users to join and more dApps to create accounts using RCs

Thank you for your amazing reply @culgin

hi @culgin

We're having very similar view on HF20. As much as it didn't affect me - it is a killer for anyone who cannot power up.

I just user my friend account (with almost no SP) to drop few comments and my RC went down by 20% just after 3 comments.

That is insane.

Great comment buddy.
