RE: Vote, it’s your Right and Responsibility!
That sounds like a comunist slogan.I dont know how voting for a witness is my responsibility. They are getting tons of money for doing this so their time and effort is already being rewarded.
Hi @tszunami,
your vote for a witness doesn´t give them any money, it´s totally different from a usual upvote.
By voting for a Witness you trust you try to ensure that he or she stays in the top of the list in order to keep the Steemit Blockchain alive.
Just imagine they would turn off their servers tomorrow... Steemit would be down and you couldn´t do anything about it. That´s why it´s so important to vote for the right people, the ones you know, trust or appreciate. This way you can make sure that Steemit keeps working in the longrun.
The money they receive is for sure including some Profit for them. But to be honest, they deserve every single Penny of it as it´s a lot of work to keep a Node up to date and running properly. Further the costs for the Hardware and electricity have to be covered as well. In case something brakes down they have to pay for it on their own. With the growth Steemit shows today the necessity for more powerful servers will just rise every single day so that we can just hope that our Witnesses keep track on the requirements for us so that we are able to enjoy Steemit to its fullest.
You have convinced me...you should be a propaganda manager :D
Can i vote for more than one? I wanna vote Pharesim, regaemuffin, and whatsup ...at least they gave me some upvotes...
Hey @tzunami,
you can vote for all of them :) In the top of the page you may see how many votes are left ;)
