Thanks, please try to keep topics separated in your response to avoid cross-talk as much as possible!

> I feel that dropping 5 economic posts, regarding varying areas of the network, all at one time is far too much for everyone to digest. I do not have the bandwidth to meaningfully consider all these proposals all at the same time, and I would have a hard time thinking many would. I would suggest not posting everything all at the same time and adopt a progressive approach so discussions can be focused.

Its a fair note and I somewhat agree. The topics are rather heavy and the community bandwidth is limited. We don’t mind to discuss these topics over months (except MINT) and also we will use them as reference in any economical discussion that seems fit.

We decided to post this all at once for a few reasons:

- All of these topics stem from a research that we did almost 2 months ago, at that time we decided to keep it in the back-channels to avoid noise, but we started to feel that it might get dated if we did not publish it. We wanted the community as a whole to know what we were thinking.
- Most of the topics look to mid-long term, so it is not mandatory to read everything to participate in the discussions. The only topic that is an actual proposal is the [MINT proposal](https://forum.pokt.network/t/mint-incentivizing-network-transformation-mint/4522). Other posts talk about things that are long term or that were already considered in other chats like Telegram, but never reached the “formality” of the forum.
- We did not felt comfortable posting proposals (or economic topics) if we did not presented our view as a whole. We probably have a disruptive view of the POKT token economy (for us it is a currency not an asset or something else) . To support our thesis we need to write a lot.

Maybe it is not worth much, but we have almost emptied our research on the subject, so don’t expect other posts popping around (in economics at least)…
