Upcoming Features Ideas: Feedback wanted.
Dynamic price rental plan: The ability to create a rental plan either using static or dynamic hours and set your price automatically (and continuously) to the weighted average of the last 50 rentals +/- a provider specified percentage (excluding supports long term and 0B leases)
Elite provider status: A new provider tier for recognized leaders providing a large amount of hashpower and focusing on providing awesome rigs with awesome customer service.
We have providers in mind and are looking to a "[] Nominate this provider as elite" checkbox in feedback.
A special note here. Some new currencies (CC/FIAT/New Coins) may only be available to elite providers. A status with bold and an indicator icon will be added to the rigs page. We may move Elite providers to the top of the rig list.
Community vetting of new (and maybe existing providers): A way for new providers to share their verification and undergo vetting by other providers as well as mining their deposit to a wallet vs paying a deposit. Some ideas here: only providers would be able to see/rent rigs pending verification. New providers would only be able to sell an equivalent to their mined deposit amount. Whatever else providers think of.
Thoughts? Terrible Ideas? Decent?
I'd welcome see some kind of dynamic rental pricing that would reduce babysitting, but the "weighted average" - at least how it's currently displayed on the rig list - doesn't seem to be accurate. Short term leases seem to inflate it. I would also like to be able to set one ONE price for the rig, e.g. the price of one hour and then have all other hour levels based on a discount off that. E.g. I would like set 1 hour to 0.01 BTC and a 1% discount for each additional hour, not to exceed 25% total discount, instead of setting all these prices manually. Or perhaps set a range of two prices: for 1 hour, and for max hours, and everything in between should be calculated proportionately.
I don't think hashrate should be part of awesomeness criteria. I can be awesome with a small rig too. I need to think some more about the other suggestions...
