RE: Incentives for Burning Hive | (PHP) Permanent Hive Power?!

in LeoFinance4 years ago

It will be an interesting experiment. You will have a very hard time convincing developers to implement the features. Tings like SMTs could bring a lot more into the ecosystem and a large part of the SMT development was already complete.

That could be true. But there seems to be incentive to burn Hive, and for PeakD to implement functions such as adding @null as a beneficiary, or burning Hive as part of promoting a post.

The problem I see is the incentive for the user to part with the value of the Hive token being burned. I think Hive could transfer that value, rather than destroy the value. It’s a win-win.

Also, PHP permanent staking is just one example. I’m sure with SMTs and Hive Engine tokens, other ideas of value transfer could be implemented: when you burn Hive you receive this token. Still seems to be a better value proposition than simply destroying value to increase value of remaining tokens.

Thanks for the feedback and likes!
