THE DATA

I think since it started many months ago it's gone up pretty consistently ... it's grown steadily and when i wrote this post a couple days ago we were up to 6282 cards being rented out. (Aka Open Contracts)
I'm finally posting this and I see that since then it's gone up another 50

However, I don't check every week and the last check i did was over a month ago when it was about 4500 open contracts.

DAILY

• Not counting Escrow that represents $158.18 in daily fees.
• And the top renter is $24.67 a day which is now only 15.5% of the market... which is nice to not have too much of the market dependent on one account.
• Next highest is $15.92 a day.

RENTERS

• 19 Accounts are spending at least $1.50 a day on rentals.
• 9 of those accounts made it into the top 100 last season
• And there are a few others that rent as well.
• So well over 10% of the top 100 accounts at most times are renters (all or at least a good portion of their cards)

COMING UP

I have a proposal I'm making that can help for OWNERS RENTING out cards.
Here's the rough draft

What happens is i submit something like this and then usually Hive account@asgarth tells me if it's doable and then often makes something much better using that seed of an idea and his knowledge of programming.

What would the owners think?

The RENTERS UI changes are much more involved than this... and may take more time.
