RE: Increasing Curation, Demand for Steem Power and Community Interaction

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

I think the idea of Powered Down accounts losing their voting power is a good one. This would have an impact of slowing down distribution, however it would support the price of Steem which would result in many users feeling far more positive about Steemit in the short to medium term...

Commitment should be rewarded.

Sort:  

Another option to reward commitment would be to give bonus voting power to those not powering down.

  • The longer you go without powering down, the larger your voting bonus.
  • Start a power down and you lose all or part of your bonus.

I think this option would do much more to encourage power-ups. Thought I'd throw it out there, it's something to consider.

I saw it after I posted a similar answer.Of course I like it!

This already exists. The longer you participate in a meaningful way, the more SP you earn in the form of rewards and the higher your influence becomes. Rewarding people for time alone effectively penalizes active involvement.

That's true, but is rewarding meaningful participation enough of an incentive? I don't know.

Also, in this scenario, you wouldn't be effectively penalized for active involvement if you are also holding SP long-term.

Commitment should be rewarded.

I agree with this statement but right now we are discussing how to penalize no-commitment!
So maybe it would be better to make a proposal that rewards the accounts that don't power-down

What if the steemit account votes equally for ALL NOT POWERED DOWN witnesses ;)

If powering down stake loses voting influence

for the same reason...
"if NOT powering down stake GAIN more voting influence!"

That's a much better way of putting it. Kudos @liodani

commitment should be rewarded: bingo.
one way to notice is that is in number of "comments" and total posts. When i see someone with thousands in each post but like 200 post total[ that includes comments ] that's not commitment, that's someone with the hand DEEP into the honey pot.
