RE: Adventures with Linux Distros
Glad to see you're back, and to clue you in, the experiment with the whales not voting and @smooth calculating each and every individual downvote to counter the large stakeholder votes is a success. The power is in the hands of the minnows and I just proved it to myself two times in less than two minutes!
First I upped a post at $1.64 and 76 votes to $1.65 and 77 votes and yours went up by a whole 10 cents! It was sitting at 239 votes and $17.29 and now it's at 240 and $17.39 ! I cannot wait for the HF to happen so we can see what will transpire with a flatter reward curve!
There is no reward curve change.
Getting whales to not upvote is not a real solution. Whales shouldn't be moderators with the power to flag like they do. Decentralized power is still required.
I thought/was under the impression that one of the proposed changes in HF17 was a flattening of the reward curve.
Was supposed to be, but not anymore, read the steemitblog post a few days ago (I think it was that one), it mentions not right now heh.
Next hardfork scheduled for: Tue, 21 Mar 2017 15:00:00 UTC (in 4 days, 6 hours) -- releases quoting steemd
