RE: Hardfork 20 - 15 minute Rule - 255
What do you mean with "it will cost less to create an account"? As far as I know I never paid for that?

I think somebody pays for account creation. I'm not sure where the fee goes. I think they might start burning some Steem where the Steem just disappears.
From what I understand is that they are not going to give out delegation to new accounts, they claim HF20 will fix the bandwidth issue so that shouldn't be a concern with new accounts. Like when you signed on they gave you 15 steem...that's not going to happen anymore. Someone also wrote a post about the HF that said unless you have 120 to 140 steem power your vote will basically be worthless. Supposedly they are going to start charging to open an account. Least this is all the things I've read from various post.
That's they way I understand it too.
I'm hoping they still do the delegation though. I think I was given 1 free Steem when I signed up and now they are giving .5 I think plus the delegation. I think that .5 will go to zero.
I got 0 Steem when I signed up .... I did have the 15 delegation.
They probably gave you at least .1 and you didn't notice it. The .1 is part of the 14.9 delegation that they give.
https://steemd.com/@hoaryhigger is a new account for example.
Wow, charging for a new account is a bad idea! A vote that is worthless unless you have 120-140 Steem is even worse! I think most people don't have that much!
I think there's always been a charge and it's always been paid by Steemit or whoever is actually making the account. Steemit makes most of the accounts. I think the fee they pay will get cheaper but I'm not sure.
