now I would like to propose to adjust the witness pay to 1BTS/block immediatelly.
from March to now, the BTS price went up 10 times and the witness price doubled in BTS, generally speaking we can say that now the witness is obviously overpaid.
it is not easy to get a perfect witness pay infrastructure, and we can continue the discuss on this topic, but at the same time, I think we need to adjust the witness payment to more reasonable and acceptable level immediatelly.
the number that come to my brain firstly is 1BTS/block, in current price it means about $1720/month for a witness.
I feel this payment is enough to pay the cost for a witness, and I don't think $1720/month is a overpaid salary to a witness that do good job in block generation, software update, price feeding...we need to provide a good salary, not a lowest salary.
and surely this is not the final witness payment, we can review this number continuely when price change a lot. but now I think we need to reduce the price immediatelly.
it will end or at least elimate most of the complaint to current witness payment, and will save much budget for worker proposals.
and this will tell the world: Bitshares team are able to consider globally, they focus more on the benefit of the whole community but not the benefit of a small group.
any ideas? please let me know, if there's few objection, I think we can apply the proposal in short time, otherwise, maybe we also need vote to decide.
