RE: Reputation Lotteries can leverage greed to encourage effective altruism
how you define and act of altruism on the blockchain exactly ? a transfer of some steem to other users?

Not just define an act of altruism but "effectiveness" has to be measured too. It's not impossible but it's definitely a challenge. Effectiveness can be based on some objective criteria. There could be lists of charities which get ranked by participants by effectiveness in altruism just as stocks have different prices.
You want to know the effectiveness per dollar donated. We can use GiveWell as an example of a data feed and there can be many alternative feeds for example if you're an American and want to focus on helping out people in your country, or if you're in a local community, but the point is there would be curated ranked lists of charities and Steemit will become very good at curation.

Yeah I wasn't thinking about out-of-steemit-bounds transaction, I was thinking only on inside-steemit transactions.
it can be a good idea to lore a charity open a user and then you can calculate easily.
by the way I have this feeling I had seen you posting on the TAUCHAIN facebook group, am I right ?
