Yes they would. The number of coins produced imo has little affect on anything. a coin with little to no use, means that its worth nothing
i have to go with what the holders of ADT want / the people that have voted
i am 100% sure that having some crazy amount of stake would get people interested short term but long term it would just inflate ADT until its worth nothing !
if the majority of ADT holders want some crazy amount of stake i will go with it but until that point i am going with what the users want and that is around 5% a year
hate to break it to you, but 5% a year is shit. ADT is not a government bond, or a REIT. Its not a fiat currency. Its magical internet money. I won't risk holding ADT for 5% a year, when it can drop 50% in a day. I really wish you heeded my advice when I suggested a higher interest.
The network doesn't stay at high interest forever, it adjust the interest rate to stay inline with the amount of coins that need to be minted. If you are worried about ADT being worth nothing in the future, mate you should be worried about it not being worth much now.
Look at TEKcoin. 40% interest per MONTH. People have wet dreams about being able to buy even 1000 TEK. I can put a 10000 TEK sell wall and the market will eat that block of coins up like a fat kid on a birthday cake.
Once I knew you wouldn't budge, I dumped all my ADT at 50 latoshi. Only business nothing personal.
Very good argument here.
40% a month X 12 months compounded is over 5000% so I would advise people to stay away from that coin !
if you all want to turn ADT into a pump and dump I would suggest you find someone else to run the coin as I am not going to be involved in that
most of the big ADT holders don't want it to be more than 12% a year and there the guys that would benefit the most from that
The USD value of ADT is very close to what it was before BTC went up 500% so its only gone down relative to BTC
I can understand why you want it to be crazy high as It will make you all more money short term but longer term it will just crash the price
The last couple of days I have been trying to work out what can be done to keep the most amount of users happy as there is a huge amount of variance in what the users want from ADT so I think everyone is going to need to compromise a bit what I am suggesting is not set in stone YET so it can be changed if there is a valid reason to do so
12% Proof of Stake a year ( 24 x 15 days x 0.5% ) making the maximum Proof of Stake inflation just over 9,000,000,000 more coins over the next 12 months
1000 Proof of Work coins per block 1 POW block every 60s making 525,600 POW blocks a year with a total of 525,000,000 coins a year
The problem is that ADT is in competition with other POS coins that pay out a far higher amount meaning people would rather hold a pump and dump coin as they could make more money from that
If ADT had a huge amount of POS it would bring lots of people to ADT as they would want to make the most amount of money possible but that wouldn't last for long as the amount of coins on the market would cause the price to drop faster than people could buy them
There is a lot to be learned from coins like cent that have had crazy POS settings and one of those things is that the price will stay up for a while but eventually it will be worth nothing due to over saturating the market with coins
If ADT is going to be used as an online currency for buying and selling online / virtual goods / apps / stuff like that it cannot have a crazy amount of inflation
There is also a good chance to do what craft coin is meant to do as a virtual currency that can be used across multiple games and operating systems is something that would be a game changer for any crypto that manages to do it
craft coin has limited it self by sticking to minecraft and that is one of the things that is holding back its adoption
ADT is not just for 1 thing it can be used for anything or everything its not store of value like BTC its a currency not a piece of GOLD !
There is no limits to what ADT can be used for you get all these coins marketing themselves as the currency for x place or x thing that's just crazy crypto is meant to be nearly limitless on what and who can use it
so much has been lost because of all the people that are here just to make money of other people I can see why satoshi nakamoto decided to leave
at one point I got so much abuse from people that I was considering what to do with my coins if I decided to leave ADT
fortunately for everyone involved I stick with things threw the good and the bad
I can understand why jag didn't want to be part of a sinking ship but i don't think he realised that him thinking it was a sinking ship made it sink more that it should have
i have people calling me a scammer all the time because they made the choice to buy ADT i never forced them to buy it they did it under there own free will
if i was a scammer i would just have made my own pump and dump coin not take over the mess that was ADT !
1 way or another ADT will do well and it will always be around
its nice to see more people on the ADT forum making good posts
sorry for the long post tat probably dosent make 100% sense i have tried to compress everything into the smallest amount possible
