I don't see the sense of having that kind of protocol and passing the burden and consensus of that token to the users. Do the developers think that people like this kind of system, I don't think that they would love to pay that much for burning those tokens.
They should have thought of it that burden shouldn't be passed on the receivers, it's better if they have been burning the fees if ever there is a fee for each transaction.
Sir if you remember nobody likes the idea of bitcoin in 2009. It took quite a while before people start accepting this bitcoin.
Give some time to deflationary tokens like BOOM, I am sure people will like this idea.
It's not nobody likes the idea but the idea isn't known and common that's why most people were not aware of the launching and they just chose to ignore it. But to say and compare that in today's time with the consensus algorithm that you are introducing, I think it's inappropriate. The idea that bitcoin has brought is entirely different from the burning idea of this coin that you have brought. It's your choice and I can't stop thinking about that, we're in a free community.
