RE: Gridcoin StakeV8 in effect for 4000 blocks: stats and analysis

in #gridcoin7 years ago

For the change in interest, I would like to have a poll, please see the task, and the linked thread and add your ideas there.

Sort:  

straight from my response:

In my view, it is FAR too early to even consider an actionable poll. We need opinion and conversation right now. Look in #poll-drafts on slack for an example of that conversation, much of which has to do with this issue.

I think this issue is premature. The conversation should be had on platforms which have greater visibility and less official standing than Github. After some weeks, then we start to create options for a poll. Right now we need to gather input and information.

Instead, I suggest we slow down a minute and have some discussions in the community hubs before considering an actionable poll. Please join #poll-drafts on slack or any channel really and join the conversation. I have posted an example of what an opinion poll might look like in that channel.

I know it is early, therefore the poll "task" is marked as "preparation", to make it more clear, I now added a "draft" mark too. On the other hand, I think there is enough info in #106 already. And it is now over a a year old.

@bullshark this is a response to you as well.

The thread is over a year old and the majority of it is general questions and discussion, which is great, however most of the discussion before May is restated afterward, so it's a very long and repetitive thread with weeks at a time of dead-air.

Also, the only real proposal in the thread was posted by dc7dgrid's only 11 days ago. The discussion in general talks about a lot of potential options, politics, philosophy, and intent, but only that one post 11 days ago explores potential paths and their consequences.

I think we should give time for more posts like dc7dgrid and wait for a discussion to take place around detailed protocol proposals. The alternative is to rush into something that is generally agreed upon by a loosely structured discussion between a few people.

If we encourage serious and detailed proposals, and if we create several opinion oriented polls before an actionable poll, more people might join the discussion.

What is your idea of a timeline for addressing the PoS incentive protocol? When do you want to create the actionable poll?

The opinion poll is a very good idea. I tried one, but failed to make it clean enough. Please have a look: https://github.com/Erkan-Yilmaz/Gridcoin-tasks/issues/151

An we already had a poll about fixed block rewards, but is was not stated there explicitly (PoSv3 = fixed rewards + some other things), see: https://github.com/Erkan-Yilmaz/Gridcoin-tasks/issues/43#issuecomment-325420116

and if you can, please continue the discussion there

As you know, this discussion has been going on for over a year on GitHub. See GitHub Issue #106. How long before a poll gets made for this topic or do we wait another year?
