Hey there @miniature-tiger thank you for the great analysis and this well written and informative post.

While I completely agree with you that the 7 days payout period has its downside, your post made me wonder : how can we fix this? Do you think this is a systemic issue with the rewards system?

I just recently opened a discussion on my blog whether the 7 days payout period needs a rethink and we gathered some interesting ideas there. I would appreciate if you could share your thoughts on this issue with us.

And kudos to @dbddv01 for sending me into your direction.
