Happy Thanksgiving!
Nice to hear about your new node, I wish you well with that! I'll be re-evaluating my witness votes soon. I had favored some who were signaling for 20% APR for HBD but with current circumstances 12% or less might be better.

Can't but agree. I've always been pro-20%. The reason why they wanted 15% was to keep people away that were just coming to hive to invest, reap the 20% APR, and add no value. There's a valid point in that, but many of us on Hive came for the money and stayed for the community.
With a 6% APR, why would anyone even come? On the contrary, a lot will leave, or at least remove their HBD savings, as good curation will get you a higher APR. And it is a good thing that there will be more/better curation then (we hope), but we don't want to tip the boat either...
Which is why I (and my @botlord witness) am also for (temporarily) lowering it to 12%, but mostly to clean up HBD spillage where it really matters (DHF anyone?).

Thanks a lot, Kenny, I really appreciate that! Happy thanksgiving to you as well, my friend! Yes, ditto that here too, I used to focus more on 20% witnesses, but indeed, 12% does seem like a better choice at the moment. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
