Thank you all for the valuable insights and ongoing engagement in this thread.
After incorporating extensive feedback and further refining the proposal, I’ve submitted a formal draft RFC outlining the Decentralized Convex-Preference Coretime Market model as a concrete alternative to RFC17. This new thread consolidates the theoretical framework, implementation structure, and proposed application path, especially focused on Polkadot/Kusama as a possible testbed.
You can read and follow the updated RFC draft and discussion here:
RFC: Decentralized Convex-Preference Coretime Market for Polkadot [Draft]
I welcome continued critique and contributions there to push this model forward with clarity and community alignment. Thanks again for your engagement and insight!
