There is a big drawback, however:
The shareholder probably doesn't notice!I have now searched my whole wallet,
and I could not find a single trace of the dividends payment.
Apart from the increased balance, of course.
Looks like a miraculously grown precious :-)
So ... perhaps there is additional need for communication?
It could look like this:
Dear shareholder of asset "beautiful",
you might not have noticed, but in HZ block 580370
your balance jumped up by 42 HZ, to then 68.10408183 HZ.
That happened because in block 580366 you were holding
21.0000 shares (50%) of asset 5903523947573024709, and
the issuer decided to pay dividends, 2 HZ per 1.0000 asset.
The dividendPayment was transaction 9318473567111208195, see
explorer.horizonplatform.io/?page=transaction&id=9318473567111208195
included in block 580370. The total amount was 57.7218 HZ plus fees.
Enjoy your life
:-)
Does anyone know if a newer version of NXT is showing dividendsPayments to the payee?
The we would get that with a future update of HZ, anyways.
If not, it would be worthwhile to put work into my
shareholders.py and create the above messages.
