RE: What one thing does Hive need to thrive?

I'm not really the guy to ask, but from what I can gather, having that long power down period adds stability to the platform. Additionally, I don't think anyone wants to lose their account so the incentive to follow through is augmented. It just seems like a simple solution that could also open new opportunities.

Sort:  

On one hand you want to keep a long powerdown period for perceived stability, on the other you are fine with a tool that can circumvent that feature in seconds.

I would like to see a more industry standard lock-up period for staking and the added features of klye.loans.

Yes, and in doing so it opens financial opportunity for whoever is providing the liquid resources, and maybe the network as a whole, depending on how the interest is distributed. It only circumvents in seconds for the borrower. The chain still has 13 weeks. A lender makes a little scratch for holding liquid for lend. This seems reasonable to me. I may be missing something, lol, likely a lot, but on the surface it seems like a good idea to me.
