RE: Steemers won't waste their votes on comments … voting power is money, voting on comments doesn’t make money.
sorry, I'll just put the links in cut and paste form https://steemit.com/steem/@steemitblog/latest-curation-reward-solution https://steem.io/getinvolved/paid-to-curate/
My point was that it's not about incentives, it's about learned behavior, because maximizing your curation rewards is very close to maximizing nothing.
You should vote for comments because you have more interaction, more connection and more social engagement. It's actually way more inline with your incentives because positive interactions are way better for you than just voting for a piece where your only interest is to get curation rewards.
The above is also a really good reason to comment!
Imagine, during the next months you post a coupe of very successfull post and you earn around 10K $. Would you keep thinking that maximising your voting power is not important ?
You could make 100-150$ / month by voting smartly. Maybe it's not a lot but then your plan would be to keep doing that to grow even more your SP funds. Well, you would be then very careful with every vote you give and you would stop voting on comments because you only have 20 votes with full power / day.
That's what I meant with the imbalance ;p
Ok, but I didn't just buy a thousands of Steem and power up.
