This.
It's like most miners don't understand basic maths. They keep thinking "durr if we make less coins, it's worth more''... well, no, it doesn't really work that way right now. You're just making it an IPO'ers dream market. Derp.
It is because of the IPO that you will have a chance to sell your freshly mined HVC at decent rates to begin with... why would you want a devaluation to take place?!?!?
OK, apoligies for the "derp" comment. I've had a few beers so maybe my brain is being a little "off" right now.
The way i see it is, if we vote low right now, there's less coins on the market. Coins are near-impossible to get
yet, due to only solo-mining being available. This means there's less coins on the market, less competition for the IPO'ers who are practically the only ones able to trade so far (aside from a handful of lucky miners).
Whereas if we vote HIGH, those "lucky" ones will bring more coins to the market and dilute the IPO-lead market. Though either way, i believe that low or high won't matter in the long run, unless we are swinging it back and forth weekly/monthly to our advantage. My 'vote high' is just my reasoning for the present time. Kind of in line with the guy above who said "first let's get more coins"... just my thoughts on how to bring the market in to a more miner-favouring state.
As i said, i've been hitting the beers, so i freely admit that my logic may be flawed right now. In which case, feel free to educate me.
