Hey @howo thanks for the update.
What do you think about the idea to make HBD a second liquid gas token for Hive. It would act similar as eth and the other evm chains. Example a tx cost 0.01 HBD. The chain first check if you have enough rc fron hp and if not then tries with hbd. All hbd spent on gas is burned. This will allow more flexibility for anyone that want just to check things around without locking hp. Just an idea for a long term plan :)

There is already a concept like this working on other chains as luna, where you cab pay for fees in multiple native tokens.
