Technical poll: Should Gridcoin implement fixed POS block rewards? (vote until Oct. 1)

in gridcoin •  7 years ago 

I have 60k and have staked once since V8. I realise that is less than expected, but if 60k is 'low' stake, that worries me.

The other problem with pools is that users do not control their own mag for the purpose of polls. I see there are some people in Slack advocating removal of mag weight from polls too. Say what you will, but there are drastic steps being taken, and suggested, towards a more POS centric implentation.

@Dutch's concerns remain my concerns: I want a system that benefits BOINCers, after all that's what makes GridCoin what it is. It is also not clear to make what the heck we're voting for in this poll - it seems theoretical "hey, we have a problem, should we fix it sometime?"

I said this in the Gridcoin Slack and got chewed out by a few people. Glad I'm not the only one who thinks the poll is utterly unclear.

Do we actually know if any of the developers know what the heck this poll is asking them to do? How can they possibly implement something that they don't know what it is or don't themselves support?

The poll was started by CM (Customminer - who is not a dev), who clarified that approval of the poll would be taken as a desire for immediate implementation. I tried to highlight that the poll is ambiguous and got into an endless debate with several people who thought polls are allowed to be ambiguous.

Not getting involved with this poll stuff anymore unless more people make it clear the ambiguity is not acceptable. Will not be voting on it either.

Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for clarifying the efforts you have undertaken - it is helpful to understand the situation better.
