Examples of application fees where you pay a fee without any guarantee of acceptance off the top of my head are college applications and applications for renting an apartment. I'm sure there are others.

Applications fees are common for all sorts of applications. No, I don't agree that is "gambling" as that term is generally used, although sure all businesses have risks.

As far as I can tell the main purpose of the fee is to prevent low-quality applications which would waste the committee's time. The burn part is a just a bonus. I don't think anyone expects there to ever

If you offer a choice and make the equivalence slightly higher for STEEM then the price check will be needed far less often but still address the issue of a large SBD pump (i.e. "100 SBD or $110 worth

Though likely we'd still use the market rate and not a fixed SBD amount Why bother? The goal I presume is to burn "some" Steem to help overall Steem economics (the exact amount doesn't matter)

Wow, you are really, really dumb. The fee goes to @null and not only can no one ever access coins sent to @null, they are zeroed out every block.

We're still close to the haircut This is true right now but unless they are going to revise the process every time the market moves that can't be the basis for the policy. I think "$100 worth of STEEM

I think a sliding scale depending on the tier of the application may make sense.

Burning Steem is not 'throwing money out the window'. The concept of 'burning' is quite different when there is fixed or programmatic supply as compared to something like USD where if you burn it the Fed

As far as I can tell, efforts to neutralize spam/blatant abuse are led by a small number of people. They may be (though some of this is probably the larger efforts being more visible) but by far the biggest

RE: Steem experiment: Burn post #1
I've not been focusing on it as long as SBD is at or below $1. I do restart the posts when it trades at a premium.

Top witnesses and exchanges are being recommended to continue to use the non-MIRA version for now which has the same replay performance as before (several hours if using a high end CPU with enough memory).

I would like to know your perspective about this rule. It has a dual purpose. One is to slow down bots and the other is to reduce curation rewards on obviously high paid content (e.g. authors who get highly

Spam is addressed primarily at the blockchain level. Without question it has vastly improved since RCs and is hardly a huge problem at this point. I used to get dozens of spam comments on my posts (either
