This contest was little bit difficult because everyone don't know about the reward system since the creation of this platform so it requires a little bit research and you are right in your research and you have explained all the methods and all the reward systems along with the equations which were a very good thing in your blog and you clearly differentiate between quadratic reward curve linear as well as convergent reward curve which is still in use

You have also clearly differentiate between curation types as well as you give us the reasons for choosing community curation as your preference and I agree with you that this type of curation have a lot of benefits over the isolated Curation

A lot of prayers for you because when someone struggles a lot then there is a reward for that person according to the struggle so I can see your struggle and that's why we should good luck and best wishes
