Very good post, But to be more clear this should be seen as an investment by the community. This will help secure the chain and allow us to get forks out quicker and add features we feel we would like to add.
As for the investment of inflation, most of this will likely be paid by bots and whales since they already get a large amount of the payout. The average users will pay little in comparison to the whales and bots who will need to pay there fair share to the development of the chain instead of only bleeding the chain.
Many people complain about steemit taking to long to do things as well. This lowers this dependency and will hope our chain to become more competitive instead of slowly losing its ranks. Steem can no longer afford to be the taker chain. We need to give back some to make sure we can secure our chains future.
Witnesses included in my opinion.
MIRA seems to have opened the door to further decentralize the governance process. Twenty-one is just a hard coded number, more or less, in my opinion.
What seems more important is a more decentralized mining process affecting the distribution of STEEM rewarded through mining.
Agreed!
I unvoted almost all of them. They could show good intent with just a 1% cut.
