Minting rate (ie, interest rate) starts at 0.5% per year and increases the longer you keep your node operational and staking key active, up to a maximum of 3%. Rate increases on a logarithmic curve, so

This is brilliant. Perhaps the greatest impact is how it transforms blockchain: Currently: more nodes = more difficulty = same work Under 3DC: more nodes = more capacity Doesn't it just make sense that,

While you focused on payouts, I also notice the jump in post count per month beginning in June 2017. This shows big positive growth for the platform, which is very nice to see.

Coinbase is being so two-faced. First, they refuse to support BCC. Then, they say they will but "can't" until January 1. Then the come out with announcement that they will support both upcoming

That was fantastic. Love how he managed to combine his message with a tribute to Tom Petty, too.
