RE: The Steemit account does not curate. Why?
Hey, @xplosive.
Sounds like you and I are pretty much on the same page. I'm coming at it from the aspect of what could be beneficial to Steemit Inc from a revenue earning perspective—the Steemit account should be able to generate a bunch of curation, but could also do some other things to generate income.
And they could certainly allocate more to delegation, which they already have over 18 million in SP going to various different dApps and other projects. Musing had one until it was pulled. I'd wholeheartedly agree that steemworld is should get one.
The power downs are back to what they believe they need to pay people. I don't think what they earn as a massive holder of SP is enough to keep up with what they take out. The larger amounts they were powering down because of the potential hard fork incident has stopped. Eventually, though, unless their revenue increases, they will run out of SP in all of their accounts.
So, everything you say there would be great, and better if they were generating income from it.
