RE: HIVE Inflation | Is it too high? | Part 1

in LeoFinance5 years ago

HIVE inflation isn't too high user base growth is too low and we're not using the inflation well enough to get more users into the ecosystem. If we just look at the run up to 8 bucks during the 2017 bull run we can see how quickly that inflation is gobbled up by people once they start flocking in.

Also as dapps come on board they also suck up liquidity so they have resources to use the chain and reward users. I think if HIVE jumped on the De-Fi trend and had its own DE-FI platform you'd see how quickly that inflation gets chowed up

Sort:  

Yes I agree. Users growth can offset inflation easily.

We just need to jump started it :)
Lowering inflation might be one catalist for this. Although it might not matter at all as all.

What about inflation diversion? Instead of lowering it, we fork to have some of it diverted into locked account that only releases additional inflation should we hit certain active users/new users.

Could that work? Perhaps add some sort of calculation to regulate the inflation based on the activity and vesting?

That is escrow like inflation ....
Ripple does it. Basicly lock some coins, that will be relesed only if certain creatia is met.

Its intersting concept. Adjust the inflation according to growth.
