[bisq-network/proposals] Decide on interest rate for BSQ bonds of bonded roles (#120)

[Steve Jain]

> The fact that locked BSQ accrues compensation and not locked BSQ accrues nothing fully complies with the philosophy that only valuable contributions should be compensated.

@mpolavieja that's an interesting way of thinking about it.

To me the appeal of a dividend is that it would apply to all BSQ holders, which addresses the concerns of those in this thread against "interest" for a small group of people, while still achieving the goal of this proposal.

While I still like this idea in theory, I dismissed it because I don't see any practical way it could work, as it would require every BSQ holder to make a compensation request. I don't believe the DAO is designed to handle so many requests, and furthermore, I fear such a mechanism would change BSQ's public perception from being a utility token to some kind of investment. 

I think the problem at hand is solvable by easier means, such as figuring out a way to compensate for ongoing work. It's a more solid justification for compensation, while indirectly providing a return for locked-up funds.
