RE: 50/50 curation and bots getting more?
The Application Steemit need to re-organize itself, and also change the structure of its Reward Pool mechanism.
The Proof of Brain mechanism on Steemit does not fulfill its job in curating the best content. I would like to see, with the introduction of Communities (Hivemind) and SMT, that the Steemit Application gets separated from the Reward Pool distribution and Steemit should become a SMT by itself.
By doing so we would have the ability to put Communities in charge of the Proof of Brain (Voting and Curating) responsibility and the experts in there own community would transfer the value to its members. We than could see many different Blogging Application competing for their audience by rewarding them with SMTs that are linked to the Steempower that drives this Blockchain.
:)
I think slowly, all applications will have their own SMT.
Yes, I think so too, but most importantly Steemit needs to be seperated from the main Reward Pool.
We can not have a Blockchain that is Dapp driven and its main Cryptocurrency is tied to one Application (Steemit) that doesn't even work properly.
We need the Reward Pool distribution between many competing Dapps not just only Steemit as a Proof of Brain mining source.
And communities could than implement your 50//50 Voting proposal if they like.
THis has already been spoken about and supposedly was meant to be the new project coming from @ned. The bear market seems to have put it on the backburner while scalability takes the focus.
