As some of you know, I have done a series of interviews with Steemit-related folks, including:

Tomorrow, I'll be interviewing @aggroed who I had the pleasure of welcoming to my studios last week for a "technology tour." What questions do you have for him? What would you like us to discuss?

Leave it here in a reply!

Sort:  

Ask if he would support restoring the Steem Power vesting to a multiple year long schedule to address the problem of voting for short term personal profit rather than long term healthy growth.

Ask if he would support a return to a non-linear rewards curve so that there's short term incentive to form consensus around quality content rather than each person upvoting only their own posts.

Ask if he would support curation rewards for downvotes as well as upvotes to help prevent spam and platform abuse.

Thanks for conducting the interview and soliciting questions for it.

that's an interesting one

My first question would be How long will "steemit" be in BETA?

I'd like steemit to overpower Facebook's popularity in near future. What's your take on this?? That'll be my second question

@davidpakman was misleading/confused here. Steemit is a single website. Steem is the infrastructure that supports that website and others. Anyone can build a website that acts as an interface to Steem, and a number of independent sites exist already. Witnesses like @aggroed work for the Steem blockchain, not specifically for the Steemit website.

Are you concerned with the recent dip in the price of steem and what are your price predictions for steem in 2018.

good one, will ask about this!

Yes, because I don't have any extra Federal Reserve Notes to trade for them right now while they are on sale ; )

Hey @davidpakman great to hear this! I am also interviewing several Steem Users for my research project on Blockchain Social Networks and @aggroed is clearly a much sought after user ;-) I was also referring to your work in that post and would be excited to get you on board for an interview @davidpakman. Would you be available for that?

I’d like to hear about his thoughts on reward pool “abuse” and if he believes it is impacting new user acquisition/retention.

Thanks!

what are his long term views of steemit?

Ask him about the SBD peg to the US-$ and to what extend he would enforce it if SBD fell below 1 US-$. Also whether he sees it as a problem that the real Steemit currency Steem lacks behind SBD which is only supposed to be an easy internal exchange tool. Why is SBD being traded on external markets? What sense does that make? And if he thinks the market will lose trust in Steem if it finds out that SBD is just a digital fiat currency? thx!

Definitely, lots of questions about SBD lately

thanks, looking forward to it!

There seems to be a lot of dudes on Steemit - which is fine, I like dudes... but I have noticed that "feminism" is a bad word around here (Not all females and/or"feminists" are social justice warriors or interested in riding the identity politics train after all). I am wondering about his thoughts about an imbalance of gender (my observations could be wrong) and, If he agrees, does he think that there is something that could be done to encourage more female Steemians.

"What do you think is the most important community-related aspect of Steemit's growth?"

His position on the Haije vs berniesanders drama and if he thinks there should be a cap on the reward pool, posting cap or if everything should be up to the community to governance.

I think many people dont downvote in fear of their payouts and reputation as well that precious voting power is lost for that day. How can people be encouraged to downvote if this should be encouraged at all.

If he couls snap one finger and one thing would be immediately implemted into steemit, what would that be?

If he could snap one finger and one thing would be immediately out of steem or fixed what would that be?

Awesome question. Couldn't have said it better myself.

If he supports berniesanders in the saga vs haejin, does he support downvoting davidpackman for having the audacity of: bringing followers from another platform, creating a large following, posting multiple times a day, and generally bringing positive attention to steem.
