This proposal is so wrong in so many ways I don't even know where to start.
I will "start that for you". I've missed that "opinion", but, while I can understand that it's probably a paid article and also one controversial which can bring audience, a newspaper calling itself "Bitcoin Magazine" should not have posted that, because imho it shows that
they either misunderstood what is bitcoin about (and I mean here the entire philosophy and also the ecosystem),
either don't care. In both cases it's
bad advertising for them as newspaper.
This would affect collectibles big time, while all the rest would only have to move their coins around every year when the fees are very low.
Then, what about the holders with small amounts, i.e. the vast majority of bitcoiners? Will they just move to altcoins just to not erode their stash of sats?
On the other hand, I trust the devs are not idiots, hence will not implement/merge such a crappy idea. Again,
a big -1 to Bitcoin Magazine for accepting to publish that.
