SMT Development Update #4

in steem •  6 years ago 

I have a question and sorry if it has been answered a hundred times already....

But will creating SMT's burn steem? any mechanism that requires burning steem will make me further believe the value of steem will rise above $5 again

It will cost SBD, price has been discussed to be around 10 SBD but I don't think its set in stone yet, or should I say set in block. :)

In the whitepaper it says the price will be 1 SBD, which may be changed in later hardforks.

Yeah, at Steem Fest 2 they mentioned it may be raised to 10.

Ah... sorry, I totally forgot whitepapers are usually out of date seconds after being published. Thanks for that.

Since Steem now supports perpetual edits I think white paper also needs to be moved to a steemit blog. That way we can track all the edits and whitepaper is upto-date.

You are definitely not wrong there! That's a great idea!

The answer above me is not entirely correct. Read this section from the smt-whitepaper titled:

"Increasing Market Demand for STEEM with SMTs and Implicit Value Drivers rather than Fees"

(https://smt.steem.io/smt-whitepaper.pdf)

It starts on page 56

The creation fee can be paid in either SBD or STEEM, and it will be burned when creating an SMT.
