i like the idea of freedom to not care about a coin
i mean if u see it as money i have the freedom too to have it untouched for 10 year i know it will still be valid cash
if u able to sign a message with ur address of old wallet and a copy of swap day show a balance u should be able claim that even in 10 years
that u lost all POS earnings of that timeframe is punishment enough
and that the POS of ur coins supported dev team is another possitive aspect
if i would be in the possition to design a swap scenario for DMD i would do it that way
grantee that ur coins stay valid coins is one part of the trust relationship between dev team and investor
Actually money get swapped out aswell, and when they do you get a window on about a year from theyre released to get your old money swapped for new ones, before they get useless. So to say that money always is valid and build your point on that isnt correct.
Other then that i see a big problem with it always be valid means that someone has to sit on this massive amount of coins, and for an investor to open the big moneywallet and invest that will be a big concern. You can say that the devs are the best in the world, you can say that they wont touch it, you can say that only one person from the whole dev team has access to it,but in reality and with cryptos background the "investor" has to know that is true, and if/when the value goes thru the roof suddenly that pile of coins is worth alot, and in a easy grab for all the work put down, or a friend of a friend founds out and gets them , or it get hacked how its done isnt the issue the fact that it can be done has to be taken into consideration and thats hard, to say not impossible to try and prove such a thing. With a set reasonable timeframe for switching and then burn the remaining coins in a easy to lookup way that would be most fair to everyone both old holders and new investors.
