stellar has dead cheap fees , can we drop our fees to match them?

stellar is using quorums to offfers fees of 0.0004 cents or something ridiculous like that. why cant we rollout something like that ?

Their tx times are 3-5 sec, once you use stellar dash feels too slow ...can instant x txn fee be brought down to 1 cent or so ?
 
I'm not entirely sure if transactions / accounts can't be frozen like they can in ripple (I've seen conflicting answers).

I've used testnet on eos recently and it feels similar. I haven't used stellar yet, but I'll try this weekend.
 
Stellar is essentially centralized. 82.76% of the (unminable, already fully distributed) coin supply is owned by the Stellar Development Foundation.
If you're going to use a centralized service, try BofA, Chase Quickpay, or Venmo. They're near instant.
Blockchains provide distributed consensus at the cost of some throughput efficiency. Dash's Instant send is about as good of a non-centralized solution as you're going to find for quick sending.
 
Stellar token distribution has nothing with their transaction time. They could distribute 100% tokens, yet have same "almost instant" payments.

The difference is their consensus mechanism. AFAIR they use a BFT within quorums of nodes (but don't quote me on that).

I doubt it's usable in dash since it would be a major change to our consensus protocol, essentially creating a new coin.

True. What I meant was that if youre agnostic toward decentralization, there are plenty of non-blockchain-based options that would have as good if not better transaction throughput than stellar.
