RE: WHALE DOWNVOTING AS A MEANS TO EMPOWER MINNOWS AND DOLPHINS – IS IT WORKING?

in #steemit8 years ago

Me too, I'm willing to "suffer" temporarily in order to benefit others in the long-term, so we will have to see if a benefit actually comes. Perhaps the whales could have just restricted their upvotes to 25% or something else instead... as that would have made a difference.

Sort:  

Even at 25% (for the larger whales at least) it is still massively more powerful than other users and completely dominates the influence over rewards. In fact many whales (especially those running bots) do often vote at 25% or lower so that wouldn't have been much change at all.

Good point, 25% of a million is far more than 10,000... so I get your point. A whale vote strike would have made a difference though, right? Anyway, hope this works!
