I voted FOR AIP: Timeboost + Nova Fee Sweep :
As a newly active delegate, I’ll preface this response by saying much of my response and questioning is for my own education, rather than critique:
- I support added revenue for the DAO, but is there any notion of the expected amount of revenue to be generated?
- Does this system, theoretically and if used substantially, run the risk of taking precedence over all non-express transactions thereby forcing all txs to be handled within the express lane and creating a bidding war for processing / high effective tx fee?
- I echo some of the other delegates in advocating for the separation of completely disparate proposal actions in the future. Nova fee sweep seems far more simple and generally agreeable. To package a fairly straightforward, non-experimental, and broadly agreed upon action with an experimental, complex, chain-level alternation seems to only muddy things.
- Contrary to some general delegate commentary, I do generally support the delay of non-express lane transactions. While it doubles tx time, I don’t believe 200ms is a sum of time appreciable to the average retail user. And, it is certainly not a driving factor in a retail user’s choice of chain. Personally, I believe transaction speed between chains being a marketable advantage is converging on zero as all chains approach speeds seemingly instantaneous to the average user. At a certain point, being milliseconds faster than the next chain simply doesn’t matter.
This being said, I will vote FOR this proposal in support of OCL, added revenue for the DAO, and lack of strong concern to justify not experimenting with this solution.
