Submission + - Stagnation Breeds Innovation in Cryptocoins - First Deflation, Now Dividends (cryptogoat.org)

An anonymous reader writes: When new coins are birthed on the various decentralized blockchain networks, they usually tend to be flops, scams, or copy/paste implementations of existing coins.

Because of this stagnation, new deflationary coins were the first to come to the scene, where liquidity would be locked in an inaccessible wallet. Typically this is enhanced by a percentage of sales and buys going to be burned, towards marketing and development, and in some coins, a dividend gets redistributed to holders — until now, only in dividends of the coin itself.

SuperBNB.finance is an example of a novel addition to deflationary coins in that it pays dividends out in BNB — the stablecoin used by the Binance Chain as a whole. One of my favorite coin bloggers recently discussed it's merits here.

Yeah, which sucks. People would be more interested if they'd at least provide the xml exports from their tools.

Not to mention licensing in a way that makes people able to afford and/or use the software for open source and free software - part of their analyzer uses clang, the least they could do is actually contribute toward that project and the ones that they "analyze."

It seems like every time they do this for promotion they just claim everything as a "bug" without really individually investigating and reporting all of them, taking only some obviously wrong ones and then lumping the whole report onto the project's bug tracker, if we're lucky.

PVS Studio is a great application but since they only do team licensing "1-9 developers" I can't see the benefit in buying it, just like IDA Pro. I'm an open source only dev in the C/C++/C# world, all my profitable work is in other languages...

I'd gladly pay a REASONABLE price for all these tools if they'd not only provide proper Linux versions (PVS studio only ever had an internal Linux version...in projects with Linux and Windows specific code it is difficult if not impossible to analyze the Linux parts) but so far since it seems like the real benefit to open source teams who can't afford this software (that is windows only anyway, mostly) is extremely low despite it's utility otherwise.
