any chance the supply will get a cut in the future, i think what is holding back this wonderful coin, is the immense supply, if it can be reduced to million instead of billion would be better imho, i know it require a hard fork but its worth the risk
First I want to say our Dev Team is doing a Top Notch Job - keep it up!
Your suggestion needs to be analyzed. At this point the space has gone into "Hyperspeed" and we need dramatic and intentional moves. "Coin Reduction" would be a BIG MOVE; raising scarcity would increase value.
I would add that adding PoS immediately would be of great benefit as well. It's hard to park your cash in a coin that doesn't pay dividends for holding while almost all other coins that share our objectives are providing STAKING incentives. For the holder Staking represents some assurity during the inevitable "Pumps and Dumps" plus it provides a double incentive of value: The rise in coin value (XVG $1.00) + the Staking Dividend. For Hardware Miners it becomes a triple incentive if they choose to hold what they mine.
This is definitely a race, so reminiscent of 1999 with another emerging technology at that time. I know by these suggestions we're asking a lot from the Devs but I strongly feel we have a strong community willing and able to support our Team in whatever is necessary.
So, Coin Reduction + PoS = Rise in Coin Value
Btw, Coin Reduction becomes very meaningful when RSK is implemented.
Yes to all of this.
This is not happening and it's a dumb choice on many levels. Dev has already discussed this. Read the post history before telling Dev what he should do. It's really assuming, naive, big headed, and annoying.
correct. i am not going to hard fork to take away users coins. that's absurd.
Agreed with no fork. As much as I enjoy having PoS, it seems counterproductive to have PoS and still advocate for smaller supply (supply for Verge seems suited for where crypto is heading. ie higher overall market cap, and future fee cost) to fork and set back balances (equally) in order to implement PoS (or to use PoS and increase supply) would be disastrous.
Realistic predictions are needed here. I think closing in on .01$ (or 500 sats) would be a realistic estimate after RSK contracts (so next 2 months hopefully), given we can market it properly (Dev can you verify your bitcoin address you want to take donations to? I dont want to send my XVG haha) this would be roughly $135mm cap and top 40, though it may be top 50 in this grouping depending how the crypto markets grow over this time.
we should look at trying to get AB to list it (currently they list BTC, XMR, ETH, Zcash) though not sure how tf we go about doing that
