In my view HF19 will show to be the best thing which ever happened (until) now to the STEEM community.
On a MICRO level
There is a lot of discussion on:
- If the chosen values generate the right new balance
- If the voting power does not drain to quick and will drive inactivity
- If this will not drive to much inflation in the STEEM price as there will be a lot more STEEM in minnows hands.
I will not comment on the above 'micro' comments as I will now call them. There will definitely be shifts in the day to day way the site operates, how much people earn if they keep doing the same thing etc. etc.
On a MACRO level
This will generate enormous talk, rumour, gossip, speculation and my prediction is that this will significantly increase the stock price and generate massive exposure for STEEM.
Currently any volatile news in the alt-coin market generates massive interest and coin price rises as people mainly see potential and not risk.
This generates a massive influx of new money into the STEEM eco-system (incl STEEM price rises), in the currently completed overheated crypto coin market space.
Resulting in a lot more subscribers which will dwarf any "micro effects" which were mentioned at the top of this post.
In conclusion
I believe on a Macro level this type of energetic volatile improvements can be massively benificial to the whole of STEEM in the part of its life cycle it currently sits, in context of the exploding alt-coin eco system.
I am all in and already looking forward to an even more disruptive HF20.
