That is great, thanks.
I guess the number I would really like to see is how much is the stabilizer and how much is the restofus?
If those profits could be going to the restofus, I might not want to support the proposal.
It would be nice to know that 'the community' is carrying its own weight and doesn't need special dispensations from benevolent stakeholders.
But, I doubt that is the case.
I mean, it's a pretty basic arbitrage bot. Beyond the size of available funds, there's nothing stopping any of us from doing this same thing. Smooth has been pretty responsive to when the bot needed less funding, so I suspect if enough of us began running the same kind of bot he'd just scale its funding back.
Yes, I think that was the plan, but who is cheerleading the community to step up?
This place seriously needs a figurehead to rally around, but nobody has managed to achieve orbit from the crowd.
A couple managed for a time, but human foibles always come out after some period of time.
