RE: Proposed changes to the voting weight/power
The problem with this is that it would violate one of the constraints of the system, which is to preserve your stake. Also anything that is not linear to stake would be subject to sybil attack.
That being said, I find that I want to see which posts are doing the best using a ranking system closer to linear. It could be sqrt(SP) or log(SP) or simply 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 for plankton to whale. I think newbie accounts should be filtered out so at least it takes some effort for the vote to count.
If others feel the same, I could make a ranked list of posts according to whatever desired ranking system. Then if people upvoted those (or the summary post) this could all be automated
To clarify, anything that is sublinear with respect to the rewards is subject to sybil.
This does not mean that different superlinear regimes can be used.
However, all that would mean is that large stakeholders would vest to many more accounts to be in the regime with maximal superlinearity in rewards.
However, reputation of accounts will also be different as well.
Tough problem, that's for sure.
I understand what you are saying. I think the algorithm to make this work is much more complicated than just simply basing it on a percentage of holdings, as my original post kind of stated. It most certainly would have to take into consideration account age and probably another combination of the users blog vs reply posts and the earnings from those posts. This definitely complicates the matter but it pushes users to make posts that actually have content to them rather than just "good job!" or "haha!"
The idea presented is just that, an idea. And absolutely has a LOT of fine tuning would be needed for it to work.
