I do see your point. I also see that becoming a problem in the future. Crypto growth is based on people using it not good ideas. If people have to wait an entire month to get verified from this, im afraid it will just slowly die off. Maybe they could make the time length for verification shorter for candidates but longer for newbies and verified?
This will affect network core advantage - 1 node 1 person. When human could take part in validation once per month on main account, he could also validate many candidates in the meantime and mine from many nodes. When you want to start mine bitcoin you can't start just now. You need to order antminer, wait for deliver guy, you need to ask local energy provider for discount and wait for his response - etc. I understand that this might be frustrating for someone who is excited and want to join but it will not be a reason for slow die. Validation once per week could be because the majority of network will quit after few weeks being frustrated about constant work (preparation before validation, being on time during validation once per week). I hope to see you longer in here and be able to talk about this case with you after 10 validations
