I would love an economist to take a look at the research and Validate.

This variant focuses solely on cutting supply. It is less complex than the growth variant and may therefore be less suitable for the tokenomics.

This is less than slapping a band aid to someone who has already lost an arm.

What happens to MILLIONS of DOT already procured through high-inflation years? Are we going to retroactively burn the staking rewards they accrued so far?

To my mind, DOT was never to capture or store value at all, the whole NPoS rests on that fact. Parachains were always supposed to capture value instead but since this hasn't happened we're dealing with half baked ideas to "make DOT great again". None of which address the actual problem.

Not confident I can give right decision, but I agree with that reducing inflation is right.

I'm not satisfied at all with the quality and depth of the discussions around economical changes. This is an extremely vital area that should be discussed over a longer period of time, and the discussions should be led by economists, and the proposals should also be submitted by economists. And all aside, I think more emphasis should be placed on the value and utility of the token rather than economical adjustments.

I would like this to be decided by the community, and I would also like to receive comments and evaluations from experts in the field.
