Ah I gotcha. So it's not a delegated proof of stake type of thing, it's a just straight up proof of stake node where who has the most resources bonded gets the most of the pool? Don't have to worry about the popularity contest?
If that's the case, then that is a whole other story. If all the computational resources needed is a Pi 4 or better, then the 2000+ Hive makes a bit more sense.
What is the story on getting that bonded Hive back if we decide to shut down the node? The only reason I ask is because the docs are lacking a bunch of information like this, which I see as important information.
That's correct. There is no voting structure or anything like that. We might add it in the future for things like governance parameters, or DAO proposals, but core consensus will remain largely how it is initially designed.
Well, that is just awesome then. That is one thing I really can't stand about any DPoS system. I come from a mining background, so what you are doing makes sense. That changes the game, thanks.
You can unlock your Hive which will be returned to you after 24-30h from your unlock transaction.
