RE: Delegating SteemPower - The best idea since the invention of sliced bread?!
Interesting idea indeed, but it seems today the whales got an option to set the power of their vote directly from the steemit interface with the latest update. So now they can apparently set how much of their voting power they want to use for a post they vote on.
Prior to that I think that this was only possible if using the CLI wallet and it was not convenient function to use, especially if you have to vote on quite a few posts daily.
So what? I'm not talking about vote power, i'm talking about vote variety. a whale is still a whale no matter what power his vote has..it's about the idea that using many delegates as his eye and curators will maximize the chance of them seeing the good posts. that's my post about. I knew abou that option, i just experienced it in dantheman's post :))
I expect that finding the right people to delegate power to and rotate them, then monitoring their progress and what they spent the delegated voting power on will essentially just make it harder for them, unless it is really implemented in a smart way.
really? i don't think so. maybe you don't realize that some work IS necessary if you want this to work. Too many good posts and posters are feeling frustrated and unheard...some effort is necessary at the beginning but afterwards...as the trust is built, who knows.
But I can respect you like the current system.
As I already said this is an interesting idea that needs to beconsidered as an option for sure. If it is the right solution however, not sure about that. What needs to be done for sure however is that the people with more voting power and knowledge in different topics should increase, so that a big chunk of good posts will not be getting burried all the time.
