Why does the burn address have to be paid for the network to function?

why does a bitcoin fee need to be paid when we send bitcoin around the world? same answer

Brody Cox
It doesn’t, someone could easily fork it and make a feeless version
Gavin Clark
no, bitcoin fee is paid to miners for securing the network
req fee goes to burn address so nobody receives it
Chase Anderson
It doesn't. It literally is there only to give the otherwise meaningless token a value. It does incentivize governance and development of dapps, but ultimately you could fork the protocol and get rid of the token altogether. It would work all the same.

Refute it then, you braindead shills.
t. 30k REQ
Isaiah Phillips
Why don't you fork it then, you fucking chink !
Luke Roberts
See? No arguments from REQ shills. Only insults and namecalling.

>they actually think sites would use a bootleg request

That's absolute bullshit! To interact with any contract on the ETH blockchain you have to send a transaction, which costs Gas. So it's not a REQ related thing but common to all ERC20 smart contracts.
The Gas is required to prevent spam attacks to the network...
Ryder Phillips
fork it then cunt
Brayden Moore
Forking it is pointless, who is going to use the fork? For those that haven't invested yet, it's irrelevant how much has been burned so far. You profit as money moves through. Forking it to create a network nobody uses is not as profitable as just buying the token, even post moon. This isn't a ponzi where the first person wins.
Logan Cook
Why not? Package it nicely and you're golden.
Because I have no incentive to and there is not much to fork yet, you fucktard.
Are you retarded? The Gas and Request fees are two unrelated things.
Blake Stewart
Imagine you're developing a blockchain platform. You can seamlessly incorporate Request's functionality as a dapp on top of the platform.
Joshua Adams
This coin is seriously going to die soon if they don't remove the burn function. I've already lost 350 of my tokens and I'm scared my wallet will be practically cleaned out by the time REQ really starts to take off. I know I'm probably just unlucky getting so many of my tokens burned but it still feels super shitty.

>Are you retarded? The Gas and Request fees are two unrelated things.
Read the OP again. He's asking why the burn address needs to be triggered to actually buy and burn the REQ instead of burning it instantly. You trigger the burn address by sending Gas to the smart contract...
Get your shit together before calling someone a retard
Hunter Carter
forking a bunch of smart contracts and code you may need to maintain/update vs being part of the req ecosystem for a .1% fee
hmmm

>He's asking why the burn address needs to be triggered to actually buy and burn the REQ instead of burning it instantly.
But he's not. Maybe you should read it again, including his second post. A moot point regardless.
see Ultimately, Request can succeed if there are many platforms in the future. In that case, blockchain agnosticity outweighs the network fee. If there is however only a 1 dominant platform, with, let's say 90% market share.. not so much.
Hudson Barnes
Then again, if the blockchain interoperability problem is solved, Request will be pointless regardless of which scenario plays out, as soon as someone with resources decides to fork it. My last post for you brainlet bagholders. Keep coping, it should pump in June.
Levi Long
you can incorporate the simple payment/request aspect sure
but you cant incorporate the eventual fiat/conversion part or any future additions they may add
plus you'll likely get blackballed from partnerships if req becomes popular and has clout
Brandon Fisher
should i be buying request
