[Proposal] Decline Payout Reward Option / Option To Donate To Daily Active Users

in #steemit8 years ago

I ran across an issue on Github for steemit by @roadscape which he proposed having an option to decline payout rewards for a post: 

Certain posts (e.g. platform announcements) do not need to collect a payout.We should have an optional checkbox when creating a post to "decline rewards". It would set the max_accepted_payout to 0.000 SBD. Posts which are not receiving a payout still collect rshares and get ranked on the trending page.

I think this is a great idea, but I wanted to propose an idea to take it a step further as you can see in the issue here: 

Another alternative to this would be something like, If you decline payment it could go into a temporary account for the day and then at the end of the day it would be split between all active users for the day. This would give incentive to be active every day. 

In other words, The best way to keep that metric up (Active Daily Users) is to give the users something to keep them coming back every day. The content on steem is good, the interest on SP and SBD is great, why not throw in another incentive to remain active everyday and give people the chance to "Give Back" to the community by spreading their wealth amongst the active ones trying to help grow the platform?

We now have the option to be paid in 100% steem power, which shows your support in the platform, so why not have the option to help other's grow as well?

If you like this idea, give my comment a thumbs up here, upvote, and resteem to spread the word!
