Dear @enforcer48

Very valid questions. Your comment encouraged me to write a bit longer explanation and I would like you to check it out here:

I really hope you will check out this link and share your thoughts. I've learned already to value your opinion and your feedback.

And I was just wondering (not for the first time) - are transactions on chain really free? Or perhaps we're all being taxed with inflation?
After al entire infrastructure (nodes etc) is costly. It cost real (fiat) money and those costs are being covered by selling STEEM being "printed" out of thin air. At least that's how it does look like.

Am I wrong? I would really prefer if each transaction would have super small fee that need to be covered by sender.

A more precise way to describe it is that transactions do not have direct costs for the users, and their RC would limit how much they need to transact.

But yes, I will have to get back to you once I read your other post.

I will be definetly looking forward to read your feedback @enforcer48 since I've learned to value your words.

Yours
Piotr
