RE: Steemit Roadmap 2018: Community Input Requested
As well as tools to help us better organize so that readers can more easily access the content they're looking for, I have two other wish list candidates:
● An optional "registered Steemit users only" setting for posts that would allow content creators to voluntarily participate in an active effort to drive user registration (and for those who choose to seek a wider audience the right to do so as well, hence the individual post by post optional ability - we'd all probably end up using a mix, depending on the individual post).
● A @steemit stake decentralization proportional airdrop to all accounts created after April 17, 2016, AND also having a reputation above 25. This would "spread the wealth" of that early "easy mine" in the most equitable way to real users who bought into STEEM with hard cash, sweat and tears while excluding all pre-exchange, early miner whale accounts. This type of second-stage early adopter "award" would not only fairly and appropriately redistribute that STEEM, it would also highly motivate and serve as invaluable community support PR.
Good job all, and thanks for asking!
Great ideas and upvoted....
The second idea really takes care of a point of contention among many on here. Developing a second pool that gives preference to the non-whales makes a lot of sense. This way, those who dont have the SP will start to acquire some and add to their accounts which makes their votes even more valuable.
It also gives newer people the incentive to work that much harder.
Upsteemed, especially for the second suggestion. With the account mining capability coming forth in the next hardfork, I think the pressure on the Steem stake would lower and they may put it to better work.
Once that war-chest is gone, it's gone.
