As I've said with this and pretty much everything else: new tech is never easy.
One major regret I have is building all this payout tech. Sometimes I wonder if buy/burn is better. Once you involve people receiving money, they get all nuts about it
Once the tech is stabilized, it will be the 1st of every month with virtually no downtime. This is brand new, it will take us some time to get there
Of course! Tech takes time... Long term, the payout tech will serve you, because it engages people more than basic buy/burn would... and communities live and die on engagement, in the long term.
