It seems pretty elegant to me!

So we go from investors using bots, which unintentionally undermines the value of the platform through messing up trending to investors being purely or mostly/ even partially passive, just by taking their 10* 100% daily VP, which effectively leaves manual curators the job of managing trending.

Nice to see a string of purely positive comments and I'm not surprised...I don't really see how bot owners can disagree.... it's a market system, and this option offers investors more choice. They can still choose to use bots, or not!

I think most passive investors in steem would take the purely passive option.... they're probably aware that they're presently a fetter on steem's value by using bots.

It could also make the platform MORE attractive to investors.... I mean, under this proposal, what do you have to do get a (potential) crypto return...?.... Just click a 'passive return' option, rather than the present system of having to choose between which bot to delegate to.

I can already see a new onboarder front end page for investors.... 'want to make a passive return on yr crypto' just click here...'

AND FINALLY.... doesn't this help the platform work closer to like it was originally intended? Investors 'add value' by basically just buying up steem and then leave the content creators to add more value by creating content... something of a virtuous cycle.

I could go on, sounds like a winner!

It's also got me thinking about what % is really bot/ self vote oriented'.... it's more than 30% if you count the Haejins etc.
