RE: Likely Coins Coming to Coinbase - might STEEM be one?
I really wish steemit had a referral program where people received automatic steem for each new user referred who deposited money into the platform. Similar to the way coinbase offers a one time signup bonus for letting people know about their service.
That would be brilliant! You should suggest it to some of the witnesses. They are the ones who can really bring ideas like that to the fore.
I strongly disagree, since that's easily abusable unless registration gets a lot of extra security layers, which might get people to quit during the sign up process.
Even if that's good for our personal pockets, it's horrible for the platform itself. I vote no.
Maybe one way to avoid abuse would be if the one who had referred the new user got 10% of what the new user earnt the first month or something. Then there would be no point in creating new users to fool the system, since you would have to work for the money anyways.
