I don't see anywhere in there I can't vote for myself. So I nominate @sammosk for all his selfless time spent helping all the minnows and burning up that VP on spam voting like a maniac. Muahahaha. Also @crimsonclad, because amazing. <3
I think the problems on the exchange is the size of the chain, the time spent processing it and catching up after maintenance, perhaps the single threaded nature of the process is hurting this. (I think it's all singled threaded atmo) The next update should resolve this.
What can increase the price of steem? network effect, print those shirts, spread the message, put out business cards, get people talking about it. Take every single user from face book and drop them in the ocean sink or swim styling.
Make it more effective to hold/hoard steem vs sell it, if everyone is holding and picking up more steem the price will obviously increase.
Slow the generation of the coin as well, if you limit supply then you increase scarcity which will also increase the price.
Ditch the needless complexity of SBD, just destroy that currency entirely, locking a coin to a fiat value is stupid, you can print an infinite supply of fiat, can you make that same claim with crypto?
How about you just get half of the post reward in liquid SP, and the other half in not liquid SP.
Why they even brought in SBD in the first place confuses the hell out of me, pegging any crypto to a static fiat value is an exercise in futility. Now you have witnesses having to set APR rates, creating artificial scarcity while everyone scrambles to make a buck, adding a whole layer of things to manage in terms of running a witness.
My 2 cents.
Oh and allowing a SBD to SP conversion on the site if you want to burn the tokens back into steem power, at a rate that is polled from the steem price / btc price. eliminating the entire step of having to take it external and rely on an external source to exchange during the 'clawback of sbd' period.
Afterthought, if I win, I would like my delegation to be sent to @msp-creativebot so all the delegates can share in it including myself, it supports my stance of 'when I win everyone wins' and 'help those that help themselves' if that is an option, otherwise I will just increase my delegation to it. Thanks in advance. <3
