Thanks for the well reasoned article.

@Transparencybot will probably not comment on this post since it has not had $50 in bidbot payouts.

Part of the logic is that, it takes more than that to get a post to the trending list. It might double that to keep it there long enough for the greed filled curators to hop on board to try to make a few (very few) cents from the post.

I am pleased see so many support transparency. I also believe we need to begin educating -- for instance, there is less than a few cents to be handed out to all human currators on these massively promoted post. The bots get it all.

Blessings, keep on thinking deep and creating quality.
