RE: To Curate or not to Curate | That is the question
I'm beginning to think the pricing of delegations is based off of upvoting around 10 times per day. Doing the computation, I found that if you split the cost of delegation with 10 people, and sent it to a separate account where it auto votes the 10 people at 0 minutes, you were kind of breaking even. Which is pretty funny.
I suspect this is optimal for bid bots which have 10 votes a day spread out to everyone. In some sense the leasing of delegation and use of bid bots aren't too far off.
I use my steem power to vote as you do. I delegated some as a statement that I believe certain posts are overvalued and consistently abused, to return more to the rewards pool. I think I may need to adjust my strategy though to keep my voting power higher and space the votes out.
I've never thought of it that way on how the pricing of delegation is computed. This is why you are the Tax man hahaha.
I was thinking of splitting the cost of delegation with someone so that I can continue community building with my main account and earn Steem and SBD on her account. Sort of a balancing of two because you can't help if you don't have power.
