Noether as a dynamically adjusting, permissionless governance incentivization system

Very interesting! I’m thinking here about staker motivation and payment sources.

Without considering other drivers of CTSI value, if rewards are paid via inflation then token value would derive from how useful and important are Cartesi DApps, which would then gauge how relevant it is to have power to influence decisions about them.

On the other hand, if rewards come more directly from fees derived from Cartesi DApp activity, then it would strongly stimulate decisions that increase that activity, and hence the rewards.

While the second approach looks much stronger to me, I’m wondering if it is the best one. It would incentivize maximizing network activity, while the other one would maybe incentivize maximizing relevance.
