RE: Selfvoting on Steemit

in #steemit7 years ago

The self voting is bad for steem, but has major incentives for individual steemians, thats why:

  1. If other stemians vote for others, than all is great anyways
  2. If other stemians vote for themselfs, than all is bad but you can do nothing to stop it, just getting what you can by upvoting yourself

It's a "tragedy of the commons". The situation can not be eased by appealing to the conscience of people - they act in their personal interests. It is necessary to change the system so that there is a common cause where most profitable.
