RE: No More Fear on Self-voting!

in #steem8 years ago

The real self-voting problem is that I could write a bot that posts 40 empty posts per day, votes for all of them, and skims a bit of reward all day long while providing no benefit to the system.

Nobody is saying you shouldn't be voting on your own stuff; we just want to make sure you aren't incentivized to upvote your own spam. :)

Sort:  

There's no real "reward" from that was clayop's point. You are just maintaining your share of stake, not increasing. Maybe it would be better to offer an opt out "investor class" shares which don't pay rewards, can't vote, and don't earn anything. That way people who want to just invest (and support the value of the token which helps everyone) can opt out without needing to spam 40 votes on the chain. I think it is worth considering.

sounds like a good idea :) I was thinking along those lines too banking should be viable and supporting the growth outside of the platform should be incentivized. Staying just so you can spread your daily pool to combat the "inflation" being spread to everyone doesn't seem that appealing, however you've earned that "Power" being stuck with it seems like it's a bit of a let down. No wonder the price is dropping when it's a sin to use the tokens provided and do something with them apart from trading them.

I'm expecting steemit to pick back up when the currency becomes viable not only for curation but for normal spread of value and transfers. Currently the only people supporting comments are a few dolphins and a few whales. Many have expressed their opinions that the currency should be used for shopping and such, currently it's underdeveloped for use in anyplace outside of this closed of ecosystem.

The best thing is either a upvote from abit or a transfer from some of the others earners around here. Games seem to not work that well for long and nobody cares for playing when they can make money gaming systems and people. So good luck steem health fishes can't feed themselves.

I have to add that the narrative of bad whales and whatever is a bit harmful, do the actions from steemed seem like a conspiracy and a way to drain the pool, sure but to him it's justified based on what he thinks dan and other have done to put themselves well off on the top.

I'm still piecing things together haven't gotten to the mining part. I just know this platform is worth much more than it's used for and even then right now it's worth less than what it is supposed to. 5k active people is a small amount, we are like a small town or a big village at this stage.

Cheers mate :) and cheers to abit once again I'm off this thread :D

let us know what you figure out lol

oh a bot ok..i don't know much about those :)
