Powering up was not made for these purposes and there's no reason to believe it will behave well for these purposes just because it apparently has for you so far. As far as I know, Powering Up was

As far as I know, the reason of SMTs not being able to Power Down to less than 13 weeks has nothing to do with it "circumventing the base token" but everything to do with Steemit Inc. not yet

That's actually what I gathered from your comments on this post but I didn't check which of your comments were the most recent @thecryptodrive. I will respect your most recent views on this and thank you

People DO take the long-term lockup volunterily. Everyone that doesn't want their Steem staked, can simply buy liquid Steem.

@tombstone and @therealwolf both offered valid suggestions but you rejected all of them in favor of rushing a 4 week Powerdown in this hardfork. If the issue is with SMTs, why not ask @steemit Inc. to

I actually treat Steem Power as a security feature and its one of the reasons why I chose Steem over Bitcoin. But I also support the idea of dynamic staking as suggested by @therealwolf and I wouldn't

There is always the option of buying liquid Steem. And I see no reason why investors would be scared of a 13 week Power Down when they can just buy liquid Steem. I think this post confused some people

We wouldn't be able to blacklist exchanges as easily as you think, especially if they dug in their heals and voted for their own witnesses using the stakes of their depositors.

I don't think SPS should be used for polling 😕

If investors prefer liquid cryptos, they can always buy Liquid Steem. I think you forgot about that 😕

I think you are forgetting that "investors" who don't like staking can already buy liquid Steem, just like they can with Bitcoin @lordbutterlfy.

Steem isn't locked up, it's liquid, just like Bitcoin. It's only Steem Power that's locked and I think it makes sense to keep Steem and Steem Power separate and distinct.

Exactly 😂 What's the point of decreasing the staking time for Steem Power if we already have liquid Steem?

That's not true.. Steem is liquid! It's only Steem Power that's stake and anyone and everyone already has the option of entering and exiting Steem as they please? Just like Bitcoin.. there is no need to

If someone doesn't want to stake their Steem for 13 weeks, can't they just buy liquid Steem? I think you forgot to mention that Steem CAN be bought, just like any other liquid crypto like Bitcoin. That

Why do we need to decrease the Power Down time for "investors"? Anyone and everyone already has the option of buying liquid Steem without it ever getting staked.
