I really like your idea, but I have some questions as well.
- What makes OPEN valuable? Why would people want to buy it? Is there any incentive for developers to hold OPEN instead of selling it?
- I understand that developers will earn OPEN, and its purpose is to sell it for "real" money. I see cryptocurrencies as real money as well and that is no less with OPEN itself.
My project “Carpe Diem Savings” is a decentralized Certificate of Deposit. It might be an idea to investigate if a collaboration fits with both of our projects. Some idea is to automatically stake OPEN for let’s say 1 year by your smart contract. If you would like to discuss anything about the possibilities, you can write me a pm. This is no promise in any way, and we need more certainties before we implement any token.
- What are the benefits of users that stake TRX in your smartcontract?
- Being part of a liquidity pool is bound to impermanent loss and if there is more OPEN to be sold, people are basically selling their TRX and getting "wortless" OPEN.
- Is there any differentiation for rewards based on a developer’s contribution?
- Some open source code doesn't really contribute to anything nor add something new. Other code might contribute to a popular application or for example fix a critical bug. I can imagine that when OPEN becomes valuable, people might try to exploit the system and write junk code, just to get OPEN rewards. In the light of the TRON/BTTC Hackathon, I think it could be nice to reward those that contribute to the TRON or BTTC networks more.
- Is the OPEN supply unlimited? Are there any ideas to cap/limit the inflation of OPEN (or some other ideas involving the OPEN token’s supply)?
- If there are no boundaries, the inflation of OPEN is uncertain, because it is connected to how much code is being written.
- Do you have any idea if and when TIP 157 will be supported on mainnet? Are we talking about weeks, months, or years?
