📝 Original message:What about burning all fees and keep a block reward that will smooth out
while keeping the ~21M coins limit ?
Benefits :
- Miners would still be incentivized to collect higher fees transaction
with the indirect perspective to generate more reward in future.
- Revenues are equally distributed over time to all participants and we
solve the overnight discrepancy.
- Increased velocity of money will reduce the immediate supply of bitcoin
cooling down the economy.
- Reduction of velocity will have an impact on miners only if it persevere
in the long term but short term they will still perceive the buffered
reward.
I don't have ideas yet on how to elegantly implement this.
