RE: Downvote Pool Deep Dive

in #steem5 years ago

I'm not sure if this is very easy to do on the blockchain level. We are hoping to get separately delegatable downvotes which would partially address two primary conerns:

  1. Fear of retaliation of downvotes - If you're a step removed and the downvote bot also has 100 other delegators, you're far less likely to face retaliatory measures.

  2. Whale apathy - We want relatively inactive whales to delegate their SP and help clean this place up in a way that won't interfere with their curation delegations.

Also, if downvotes are handled by a relatively impartial or even anonymous third party, it'll likely be more proportion and precise rather than emotional and potentially unfair.

Sort:  

Yeah, functionally it would be a difficult thing to achieve but the measures you state above would definitely work. Especially number 1. I would be game for that
