Yea i noticed, it cost an average of 0.6 FX to undelegate and 0.9 FX to delegate. If the USD value continue to rise but the FX fee is still same, it is gonna cost a bomb.
FX Price - $0.5
Undelegate - 0.6 FX
Delegate - 0.9 FX
1.5 FX fee = $0.75c
FX Price - $2 (currently)
1.5 FX fee = $3
The FX has to fluctuate according to the USD value and not a fixed number of FX.
Hello - Indeed @Telchar, could become a Real Killer. One of the reasons why I (in general) do as little transactions as possible for NOW. ETH-gas-costs gnaw enormously, are sometimes too crazy for words - Greetings Belgiumguy
If FX market cap and price gets bigger but the FX Fee is still stuck at a fixed rate, it can potentially cost way more than ETH.
You have to look at it from a holistic pov, see the market cap and price vs ethereum.
500m market cap and at the current price of $1.20, it cost about 1.5 FX ($1.80) just to undelegate and redelegate - 2 transactions.
Although i understand that undelegate and delegate is more complex than a simple fx-fx transaction hence will be a higher fee than a normal transaction.
5b market cap and price of $12, would cost about $18.
no I understand; I’m sure they will look into it; many things to happen yet with the network and I’m sure they have no desire to have eth level fee’s; thanks for pointing it out and keeping them on their toe’s that’s what community effort is
Absolutely something to check into. For now it’s oke, but once the price will be rising, fees will outperform ETH and we are supposed to be an ETH competitor.
Fees for Fx Core seems to be static. It should adjust with live fx prices.
Heard about some chain link price reference in past. May be that can be utilized
This will be key on the long term sustainability of the chain. If we are no better than eth on fees, fx is not as intresting as it needs to be to keep its accesibility
I am tagging you both here to seek clarification on this thread as it has been coming up on 10 days since originally posted with no answers forthcoming.
Many of us are very eager to begin marketing proposals and preparing for the next stages past phase 2 but we are completely in the dark about many technical aspects of our chain.
Even something as much as an acknowledgement of the concern and planned technical response would be greatly appreciated so we can begin preparing ourselves.
for redelegation it is enough to simply delegate to the node
and, of course, the presence of a flat fee for working on the network limits the use of the network due to the increase in the value of the token. This is not good
