I think there are some great ideas in here but I will need to be voting no for the current iteration of this proposal.

Firstly, I do not want to see the 2% burn being reduced. This will most likely be abused by people who simply make an alt and self refer, that will be inevitable and reducing the burn from 2% to just 0.5% is potentially taking away hundreds of millions of DEC burn over the next few years.

This is how much we have burned since the DEC proposal

Another issue is the additional technical implementation involved. We all know the team does not have a lot of resources at this stage, so I do not want to be putting another project on their plates. I want to be seeing more work on NPE, lands and ranked instead of this UNLESS we know for sure there are KoLs who will actually use this system.

I am willing to bet we will NOT incentivize many new KoLs anyway with this new structure, until we finish everything else I just mentioned. Therefore, although I think this proposal is a great start to something beneficial, I don't think the current iteration will do the game any favors and it's definitely not the right time.

I suggest we revisit this once the game is ready for new players, and once we can confirm we can get new KoLs with a revamped affiliate system.
