RE: A twitter like revenue model could be applied to steemit/busy
ok that make sense, I didn't know there was some memory issue there.
That means the idea to have many payout periods (1 week, 1 month, 6 month,1 year ) is pretty much dead right?
One thing a lot of authors have complained about is that their work is only valuable for 1 week, and that they should be able to be rewarded indefinetely for it..same as youtube videos for example
Yes. I wish very much we could have an extremely long payout period (6-12 mos, for example) but the amount of blockchain processing required over all active-for-payout posts becomes prohibitively large.
We have some ideas about perhaps resurrecting posts for a new payout window if they get voted on again later, but it's still in the research phase. I would love to see long tail perrennial content get paid over a longer period.
