RE: [Brainstroming] New Design for Voting Power
This has some great ideas in it.
I don't agree with removing the dollar sign (yet), because I think it has a tremendous psychological power that we can use for growth. It's certainly the reason I am on this site.
All the rest is excellent brainstorming for the idea hopper.
I agree that dollar sign is influential. Then we maybe able to show both?
Allowing users a choice of displaying which the'y like to see or have the option to perhaps have them side by side?
Neat idea here clayop!
Golos lets you choose what currency you want to be displayed.
I somewhat fancy the idea of showing both STEEM and perhaps an (estimated dollar value $VALUE) to the right of it...
The psychological effect might vary from location to location. As an alternative to the golos solution, I think displaying rewards in STEEM is a good solution. If the market value is low today, we need not feel distracted and demotivated. The user still gets 100 STEEM for instance, and to make this tangible will require a long-term commitment to the platform and to community building. Professional bloggers, passing through on the crests, are not, IMHO, necessarily good for the long-on-steem community building that will, we surely believe, increase the vitality of the platform.
The psychological effect are more for new users.
