RE: Steem, Curation, and lap-dances at Steemfest 3
What makes people so sure that increasing curation rewards will mean a decrease of delegations for bid bots? Some if not most of the bots pay delegators a portion of the curation rewards they get. Although the reward of self may not be as high, people still have means to maximise their rewards.
I'm pretty sure larger accounts would be in majority favor of 50/50.
Really? Today I saw a post from a person, who runs a vote-selling service, claiming that vote selling is a problem.
You also mention frontrunning big accounts (bid bots). So the curation guilds will become the new bid bots. They could easily be paid services to favour one account over another. All these changes look like gaming the system.
I don't know what makes people so sure, I've just read a couple of times today that this would 'kill bots'. I think some could still run, but the market would get even fiercer.
The person selling votes has a vote selling problem? :D
50/50 would negate the need for some accounts like traf, to produce 'as much' content for his stake to go on each day.
Guessing what would get a @curie 18 months ago was the best game to play.
Guilds would be trailing curie, which many Dolphin/Orca/Whale accounts are larger than these days. At 50/50, they would get a nice slice and be supporting content that most people would respect.
It is likely happening now.
This is certainly happening right now!
Agreed, many bid-bots already adjusted their voting time to 15th min. They'll get a bigger portion in the end. I don't see how it should be helpful to anyone.
Some whales manages 10 accounts and upvote each other on right time. I believe it's not something to be solved with code.
As they should, whilst they still want income. There are accounts with stake who would share some if there was more in it for them. Some are delegated to bots (lazy 2nd best earner) 'excessively', some voting themselves 'excessively', (a bit more work 1st best earner). A change to encourage these accounts to join in sounds positive to me.
