RE: 1UP - The Decentralized Solution To Distribute DTube's Steem Power To The Best Video Content Every Day
The problem with 1UP is that people with a lot of followers would always get upvoted (with or without a great video), and in the meanwhile the recent accounts trying to get views and followers wouldn't be upvoted that often.
I like the 1UP idea, but my point is that it would not be completely fair!
Congratulations on 2M Steem Power!!!
Quite the contrary: Someone with a a lot of followers is now getting a lot of votes. That is the status quo. We don't need 1UP for that. It is already like that. There is no way to get seen for for free. Do you think DTube is watching every video uploaded once per minute?
With 1UP you just need ONE single vote to make it to the new ranking page where a whole new exposure would be possible while without it the video would be lost forever in the clutter.
Also, you can give several 1UP's to people and there can be ways to reward the upvoter for giving 1UP's and increase that reward drastically for giving it to smaller accounts because these videos will be WAY more profitable than a video from a big shot that has already gotten $20 in the first seconds. There are always ways and decentralizing is much fairer than centralizing where ONE PERSON decides it all.
Besides, the point is not making the system fairer but to decentralize it.
What do you think?
I agree with what you just said, I guess I didn´t understand very well your explanation in the video, that´s why I made that comment. My bad, should have watched again the video before making a comment without much sense.
Working like you point it here, I think 1UP has the potential, and I support it!
No, your concern is valid. It is a problem and I have no clue how to work around it.
