RE: What you NEED to know about USD Tether + get 100SP delegated by commenting!

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

Wait I won the delegation? Sweet, I wasn't even trying too :)
Anyways: I prefer nubits=it a decentralized usd peg.
Here why:
When demand increases, shareholders will vote to create new coins to maintain the 1:1 ratio. When demand decreases, shareholders can vote to allow coinholders to accrue interest on their investment if they agree to “park” their coins for a set period. When demand is low, speculators may see incentive to acquire and then park their coins as a high-risk, high-reward investment should demand rise again.
NuBits will enter circulation through the NuShares voting mechanism. Unlike most cryptocurrency voting systems, NuShares operates independently of the NuBits currency.
One interesting facet of NuShares is that it allows NuShareholders to choose who will receive newly-minted coins. People can submit proposals for why they should receive the coins, and NuShareholders can choose which they deem the most worthy cause. Perhaps a developer would like funding to build a project for the NuBits protocol, or a charity wants to raise funds for a cause. They can submit their proposal, and the NuShares community can debate and decide who to distribute the coins to.

******Additional Price Support Innovations aka now staking
*Variable transaction fees==
The Nu network now has the ability to charge variable transaction fees for both NuBits and NuShares. Transaction fees are permanently destroyed on the Nu network, acting as a deflationary mechanism for the supply of both NuBits and NuShares. This enhancement in Nu v2.0 permits shareholders to vote to set transaction fees. Further information on the mechanics behind variable transaction fees can be found here.
*NuBits burning through the sale of NuShares==
NuShareholders voted in 2015 to allow the creation of NuShares through custodial grants. This action created an additional tier of Nu liquidity to better protect the $1.00 peg. In the event of parking rates being offered for a prolonged period of time, NuShareholders can vote to create new NuShares that are sold through auction. The proceeds from this auction would then be used to purchase NBT on the open market, at which point the purchased NBT would be destroyed permanently by the custodian. The net result would be a dilution of equity value for all NuShareholders in order to reduce the outstanding supply of NBT in circulation. This price support mechanism allows NuShareholders to reduce the supply of NBT to match periods of contracting demand.
*Liquidity pools==
In 2015 NuShareholders began to establish group liquidity pools to replace the individual liquidity providers that were originally specified in the Nu white paper. Users who are willing to provide liquidity for the Nu network can be compensated at varying rates, depending on the types of liquidity provided. For more information, please visit our Liquidity Pools page.

Not bad but in June 2016 NuBits had a devaluation crisis, with the price falling to 20 cents. Its rate-pegging intervention mechanism this was due to bad teamwork between nushares. Read more about it here=https://medium.com/coinforward/nubits-a-tumultuous-stablecoin-afe94cbe9df8
They have fixed this issue and created stricter protocol. By the looks of it it was due to a rogue dev. While it not the best, I find it better than bitusd.
What I am sad about is why has no one taken my idea of a decentralized usd peg :(
