RE: Thoughts on the Worker Proposal System for Steem

in #steem7 years ago

I get WPS and the benefits of decentralized projects on the blockchain, IF they will be used properly (if it doesn't open up the possibility to take more of the inflation without something solid to show for it, much like the trending page was 'conquered')! Even now I feel WPS hasn't been explained or understood well enough, that WPS is NOT only about development projects!

Now, we have an issue, and it's not a small one. It will be hard to come to a large part of the active userbase and tell them 'we're going to cut your rewards', during these market conditions, and still be talking about better retention and more adoption at the same time.

What were those words many invoked: "came for the rewards, stayed for the community". Until we've reached the "stayed" part, the rewards played their part.

I also understand that WPS or something similar needs to happen to stimulate growth, or we as a blockchain will lose the battle.

This will be a fine line we'll need to walk on, but we can't stay still and hope it will pass away.
