Hi @dutch, a very nice wrap up of the situation! Iam really looking forward for V8 going live in order to see what this all really is condensing to. And seeing this will be quite easy for everyone of us even the ones in the pool right now because the wallet is still takes part in the POS system. So everyone will at least get the chance to see how often he or she is able to stake under V8 which in the end is one of the key data items for a decision between solo or pool researching.
Thanks alot for the info !
Keep on crunching !
