RE: How should Steemit Inc decentralize their stake?
Yeah it's really odd how they used to have 2 payout windows, one at 30 days, and just got rid of that and put in the single 7 day instead. Really hurts the idea of writing for longevity.
Something like over 90% or 95% of votes happen within 7 days of posting. The 30 day payout window was computationally inefficient as a result of the votes-over-time-since-post distribution that is actually observed on the blockchain. That's why it was removed. (I, too, disagreed with the decision until I learned that fact.)
