RE: Steemit has problems. I have The Grand Solution.
Again I think you misunderstand the premise. Whales don't post. They charge a premium to small minnows, say $10 for a bigger upvote on that minnow's post, if it meets the quality requirements. I've already done a back of the envelope calculation that could give blocktrades a $360,000 return annually, and that's just one example.
but to be clear, the curation goes on for free regardless, boosted by the delegation handed out by those whales, who only sit back and get rewarded
Ah! Tyvm for the concise clearing up of my misconceptions.
So, whales still sell upgoats, albeit 'potential' upgoats, for cash. The upgoats, and payments, are handled by the curation team. Whales then attain to a portion of the curation rewards, based on their % of the delegated SP held by the curation team, or are directly contributing their upgoat for direct payments, as well as a slice of curation rewards?
Or no slice of curation rewards?
Not sure I presently up to speed completely, but perhaps zeroing in, at least.
Well, I was to put curation rewards straight to the curation teams, but that could be a thing, depends on the calculations I suppose. Previously I worked out the premium service was more than enough to keep whales happy. Curators could also be 'paid' by getting guaranteed upvotes on their own content, providing it also passes the requirements.
Thanks for clearing that up well!
