RE: DUO Guest Author @thelastdash with A Proposal for DUO Guest Author Incentives
The scheme of 5 staked DUO tokens per post is not viable which I believe is due to the fact that most guest posts don't receive enough HIVE upvotes to offset the cost of buying DUO for author rewards.
I guess you didn't see that, I already mentioned it that rewards most guest posts get is never enough to offset the cost of buying that 5 DUO to reward the author, which makes it unsustainable. This means there should be a review downward on the rewards. However, it shouldn't be based on per post as it currently is.
To have permanent guest authors doesn't mean that they are only going to be a few. It's just still the same as it is right now, but with a purposeful agreement for commitment. The amount of DUO rewards to be paid to authors strictly depends on what the DUO team came up with.
It will benefit and protects both parties. Moreover, the terms of the contract are solely on the hands of the community not the author.
I feel that adjusting it downward, is needed but will not solve that completely if it keeps having a fixed component - I feel that the rewards should be more performance related (and thus more flexible). With this proposal I fail to see the community benefit.
I would love to see a proposal that aims to increase the community value. For example if we could increase the curation rewards guest posts receive, both the author aswell as the holders would benefit.
