For what it's worth (probably not much) I think the many (most?) witnesses are taking the easy way out and shirking their duties.

I think a lot of witnesses have thought about it and actively chose to do nothing, and a lot are just not here to care. So it's a bit of both.

So a small bias would have the effect of rewarding authors (the real creators of value on the platform) without crashing the SBD.

I think authors are being rewarded pretty damn well already with SBD being so valuable.

We also need a stable pegged asset for commerce.

1000% agree with that, I put a project on hold because of that. Witnesses just were not given the tools needed to accomplish that effectively.

Anyway, I'll cut it off there so I'm not ranting at you. Thanks for the time you took to reply.

You should ask questions.
