You've been talking about this for a while, and I'd love to see it come to fruition, but there's something I've noticed that keeps distracting me. Why would I lock up Hive for 1 year for a mere 5% increase in return (25%) when I can get 20% and keep my holdings virtually liquid.
It just seems like even though I'd love to get a 25% return, I'd likely settle for the 20% if I didn't have to lock funds for extended time. I understand you've just been throwing that number out there as a place holder, but it's been happening long enough I need to ask if you think that's a valid increment. I ask because I think this would be a very valuable tool for Hive, but I'd hate for the devs to go to all the trouble to build it and no one use it because it seems less valuable on the surface than it really is. Is this all still more or less hypothetical, or will it be added to the next hard fork for certain?
