Steem experiment: Burn post #172

Since SBD has currently reached one USD in price, @burnpost can doubtless be going into "burn mode" wherever the rewards are burned instead of powered up. additionally, the account can begin to power down, with the facility down payments treated as incoming STEEM (rewards, donation, etc.)

However, because of the account having engaged in delegations to anti-spam initiatives, it's not possible to right away power down (power down is incompatible with delegation; the delegation should be removed first). additionally, there has been feedback from the community that directly destroying the worth of the account isn't fascinating, since it removes quickly support from anti-spam initiatives (in reality, so as to power down, the delegation would wish to be fully removed directly even whereas the facility down is ongoing) and it additionally removes the flexibility to support the SBD peg ought to such support be required within the future.

For for these reason (to continue support for the anti-spam delegations, to optimize the come to Steem stakeholders, and to take care of burning/@null because the final sink of all price received by the account), we are going to modify the principles as follows:

If SBD is commerce at or below one USD, power down are initiated at twenty fifth of the SP (this needs reducing delegation initial, that features a one-week delay). Upon completion of the 13-week power down cycle, if SBD is commerce at or below one USD, it'll be reset to twenty fifth of the new SP. In effect, this is applicable a somewhat slower 1/52 per week power down rate rather than the utmost 1/13 per week.
The remainder of the SP balance can delegated (or, if there aren't any worthy delegation targets known, unused)
Power down payments (STEEM) can treated as incoming STEEM payments (see #5 below)
Incoming SBD are regenerate to STEEM exploitation the blockchain perform if SBD is commerce at or below one USD. SBD are sold-out on the interior market (buying STEEM) if SBD is commerce for quite one USD. In either case, the ensuing STEEM are treated as incoming STEEM (see #5 below)
Incoming STEEM are powered up if SBD is commerce higher than one USD and burned (sent to @null) if SBD is commerce at or below one USD.
The primary rule (social contract) governing the account remains this:

In no case can any coins from the account ever be sold-out, transferred, or powered down except to @null. Any price within the account may be thought of as irrevocably allotted for burning either directly or a your time within the future.

All rewards from this post are sent to @burnpost as a donation which is able to then be listed from SBD to STEEM, powered up, and/or burned in accordance with the standard @burnpost rules. that has SP which is able to be directly sent within the type of STEEM from my very own account
