Dear @bidesign

Thank you for sharing link to your publication with me.

I fully aree with your words. "It is just an illussion.". Someone out there has a vision and is trying to force that vision, against obvious growing opportunities for abusers.

Basically I see this change as something that will surely bring me more financial benefits. But in long run it's an exteremly wrong decision to reward those who create value (authors) and increase rewards of those who are here for speculative/financial reasons.

Resteemimg or upvoting is easier than just writting a word.

Very true. And auto-voting (so called currating) will allow so called "whales" to grow even faster.

Basically we will experience "milking the cow" to the limits. Right now whales will stop powering down because it will be very profitable to be a stakeholder. So selling pressure will die down in a short time. In a long haul it's very very risky move.

Yours,
Piotr
