Witness Update - Running my own softfork (22.3)

in witness-category •  5 years ago 

I understand those points, but it seems like a slippery slope. The talks have been about enforcing promises, but they only want to enforce some of them while ignoring others. I understand why they would be hesitant to enforce the delegation measures for a number of reasons, but it seems to be counterproductive to their stated goals.

    All the promises are well defined excepting the restriction for voting posts/comments, because as you said they can delegate and vote from another account.
    BUT, the main reason of the softfork is to:

    • Prevent power down or big transfers that could affect the price in the markets (not present in Tim's softfork 0.22.3).
    • Prevent a monopoly in the election of witnesses.
    • Prevent a monopoly in the election of proposals (not present in Tim's softfork 0.22.3).
    • Ensure that they can do what they were doing: Faucet of new accounts, autonomy in the decision of supporting projects with delegations.

    So, this list of promises is very well enforced. Votes for posts/comments could be a good thing to keep an eye but it's not very relevant.
