Well, I hate having to talk about this over and over again and explain to people why this is a truly stupid idea and would potentially result in Hive losing it's main reason to exist, decentralization.
Take a look at similar chains like BTS or EOS, where governance participation is super easy.
What is the result of it?
The lower the powerdown time is, the more likely Exchanges WILL powerup and WILL participate in governance.
And then, eventually you're looking at 2 chinese owned exchanges with over 50% governance possibilities and are wondering where things went wrong.
Strong no from me.
Thus, the only way to avoid this would be a 4 weeks + 10% burn, as such, not making it worthwhile for exchanges to opt for that.
