RE: Short Idea pitch: Light accounts for the Steem Blockchain. Creating a better onboarding process. by exyle

With my own Steem Account, I can claim around 50 account tokens a week. 

If we want to onboard millions I don't think RC claimed accounts will be fast enough.

A project like APPICS will need an insane amount of STEEMPOWER to claim enough accounts.

With an instant light account and some RC delegation from the 'APPICS RC pool', I think the onboarding process for new members can be way smoother, faster and cheaper.

Users will be able to comment and post photos without having to invest in STEEMPOWER from the get-go.

Also, the app will keep their voting SP instead of delegating it to members. So they can use their SP however they see fit.

or if they don't have the money to buy the SP needed they can rent some from an RC leasing market to fill the pool.

*EDIT*

I guess this also puts more responsibility on the shoulders of the app when it comes to spam. If the delegated RC's are used for spam by light accounts with no STEEMPOWER they will hurt themselves if they don't fight it because this behavior will drain their own pool.

RC claimed accounts will definitely not be fast enough for mass adoption. But I don't think your RC pool management approach will be either. And that is simply because in order to use the RC pools to allow those new users to do anything besides transact, the RCs will have to apportioned to those users like they are now. So the end result is the same. The whole RC approach is flawed in my opinion. It's an attempt to create costs to throttle spam without having to impose actual costs like gas fees by imposing a synthetic derivative currency. In my opinion, what would be a better system would be to two-fold: one, instead of RCs just use voting power and two, create actual markets for actions instead of an algorithm that adjusts prices like a communist's wet dream.
