@contrabourdon that is good to hear. My point is this, say their is 20 new witnesses on the testnet and on launch they become the main witness backbone.
The network gets really popular within the 1st week and our goal is to attract more investment.
A new business see’s an opportunity but is already behind the curve, so they don’t invest.
I understand early adopter should benefit but large air drops of tokens during launches have in the past stopped follow on investment.
So take my company we are working on a lot. We see a future in being a node for Steem-engine.
Right now we don’t have resources on the developer side to do the test net.
If the early launch witnesses have to big of an early advantage we may down scale our plans.
Also if we want to join the testnet at this point. (This is not popular) it feels like a closed old boys club, versus the open source things we like to work on.
I could be wrong on this but this is the perception of many not in the crypto world yet.
If we want to bring in outside funds and talent this is a hurdle I encounter with my business dealings on a daily basis.
Once again thanks for the info on different witnesses as that will help calm fears.
Are you testing NFT’s ?
I need to do some testing on them. I need to write up our internal architecture docs about how we are going to implement. We have to decide this next week if this route is valid.
