Go for it!
A few things to keep in mind:
- Always listen to @stellabelle and @whatsup
- Slightly skew incentives towards minnows, rewards and wealth have a tendency to move towards a select few (pareto principle), but your blockchain is stronger if more decentralized.
- Learn from mistakes, do not assume to be always right
Here's an example of a clear misconception:
yes. this proves that theoretical didn't estimate human greed correctly. We all know what happened. Humans will do anything to sell anything, and the people at the top will gradually be corrupted.
We need to take this into account when iterating a new system. Getting it right may be actually pretty damn complicated.
well that's why i said social people need to be involved in the design. Genius types rarely have a grasp of how dirty humans can be.
It's why I really emphasize to listen to people like @whatsup and you.
I'm generally a pretty big fan of Dan Larimer's ideas, but even as he's now going for a new social attempt with Voice, he might be missing the human touch.
Mass adoption is everything. Easy onboarding, mobile apps and a simple system is key.
