RE: The Curation system needs to incentivise "Genuine Content Mining" - Be honest - Are you Upvoting... or BETTING?
Yeah very true. And i must honestly say that i'm "betting" also for some degree.
But that's what the system provokes and rewards.
The rest is voting what i really like and what i think needs to be pushed.
But i would really like to see a solution for this problem too as this doesn' t help creating good content longterm as too much content is upvoted just because it could trend. That's just betting on trends and will demotivate people who really put lots of work into their posts but don't get recognized and others get autorecognized and upvoted. Thanks a lot for taking time to show up that problem.
If the whales bet on what they like, gaming the system will reward those who can predict what whales like. If you don't like the gaming aspect of the platform, the problem is that the whales are not diverse enough to like a wide range of post. ( I am not blaming them but they are probably better coders than curators) . If the whales vote for better content so will the people chasing curation rewards.
