... and should focus much more on the distribution of the token ...
OK, that's the deciding point, I agree, and right, SPS is distributed rather diverse (there was for example no early mining etc.).
A sufficient number of validators to guarantee enough safety of the network (enough nodes) is reached by the option for everybody to buy licenses to run a node ... I still need to read more about the details, but am looking forward to see how things will finally work out.
As always: thanks again for all the time and hard work you are investing into the success of Splinterlands!
