Really something to watch unfold, @gadrian. For pure entertainment value, if nothing else, as the (head) games to follow should prove out ...
"But not the one that triggered this reaction, again."
Are you able to say which one this is? And ... Do you know that for certain or just your well-educated opinion?
It's an opinion... The threshold was practically doubled as the Inleo proposal was about to or maybe even passed the RP threshold. Something that happened before, with the same proposal, but in a less dramatic manner.
IF, but it's a big "if", the move was motivated by other reasons too, I am hopeful to see an overhaul of the DHF system, which is definitely broken, and not because Inleo couldn't get funded (there are many reasons why they couldn't, and every little bit counts). The system itself is broken as most commenters already remarked, and we know for a long time.
Thank you for that clarification.
Agreed that the DHF has long been a source of frustration / aggravation. At least for any one who spends more than a few minutes attempting to understand it ... Frankly, it is sad it has taken this long to do something ... And only then when @blocktrades has personally chosen to act ...
Will this stand up? At least long enough for a viable alternative to be proposed? I'll "stick a sock in it," as far as my personal opinion ...
I hope for you and others, it all reaches a much (much?) higher plateau of contributing to the success of the Hive blockchain, in the not too distant future, than it has ever achieved in the past.
I agree it is sad it has taken so long to have a change. Hopefully it is the precursor of an overhaul, and not a simple threshold doubling, which would be bad (to remain only at this level of action).
The DHF has been around since the legacy chain actually. Probably since 2019. And only had one update shortly after its release and then I think one or two minor updates later on (like the possibility to reduce the price you ask without creating a new proposal).
