I will let you in on a little secret.
Once we get vote tokens completed for #beyondbitcoin WhalePool hangouts, you are about to see some amazing things.
I suspect once people realize they can back a token that is good for upvotes from their (and others) sp and votes...people are going to stop powering down so much. Why? Because right now THE ONLY way to really make money from your sp is to power it down and sell it (or cheat and upvote random accounts...risking a further drop in price).
Once whales can pass out tokens to projects at whalepool hangout with @officialfuzzy....just wait and see what happens to the price of both steem AND bts. ;)
I dont post this everywhere so keep it somewhat hush hush right now...I only post that because your post inspired me to let you know just how right you are.
Wow interesting... i'm long both $steem and $bts..
Interesting project @officialfuzzy! Looking forward of seeing this develop.
Vote tokens? Is this something being integrated directly into Steemit.com?
most likely not, which means it will go nowhere
