RE: Poll for the Witnesses -- on HF21
I believe Tim said it direct to the point and based on what I have read to date about it all with a very high level of consensus from many Steemians:
" I would prefer to have two separate hardforks. I am not a huge fan of the 50/50 curation/author split. I would choose different percentages in terms of how to allocate the inflation (between rewards pool, SP inflation, witness pay, and SPS). "
100% agree with the "not a fan of the 50/50 split"
100% agree with the fact that we need to define the SPS in whole, including but not limited to the funding of it.
I feel as if we are back in the middle of 2017 where steemit.com was the one and only front end using Steem/SBD.
as we keep saying "Steem is not = steemit.com"
Will RIP on this topic for now and keep reading what everyone has to say on it.
I really don't get your comment that you keep repeating. The HF is about the whole ecosystem not just steemit.com. Nor is steemit.com the only front end that displays content created by Steemians.
Steem should be the powerhouse of SMTs and SMT's should be used by the front ends with whatever the owners of those front ends want i.e. 50/50 or 60/40 and anything else they can think of!
2017 is a ref to HF19 and the changes in distribution of upvotes/eventual payouts.
After HF20 setting the path to SMTs and an economy that can last many more decades after the initial 15 years of issuing the base currencies (Steem and SBD) we now are going back in time talking about our economy as if we are still in the middle of 2017 where everything was all about a blogging platform (then steemit.com).
We took a step forwards and now we are going two steps back!
