Not going to happen in a proof of stake system. That's the whole problem with proof of stake. It's just rich get richer and have more power. Period. And you can't find a PoS system that is NOT like that. I have worked in a few of these ecosystems at this point, and they are all the same, nothing but a popularity contest or let's pool our stake with the people that already have the most, so we can earn more!
The space has lost it's way and really doesn't care about decentralization anymore for the most part, other than a few hard core cypherpunk communities like the Monero community.
The solution is and always has been proof of work. Period.
Yes I get it. That´s sad... Can a system be changed from proof of stake to proof of work?
Probably not. It probably wouldn't work for Hive because of the whole need to have the 3 second transactions and such as well as just the overall mechanics of the chain. That's why there are only 20 + 1 signing witnesses per block. They don't want anymore due to performance reasons. A proof of work chain requires more confirmations, which makes it a way more secure blockchain, but they really have the one purpose of being actual money instead of being network gas for a chain like Hive. Hive is nothing more than a utility token really.
Thanks for explaining!
Yeah, no problem.
