RE: TimCliff Witness Update 2017-02-19
The change to allow authors to be able to specify a number of beneficiaries to receive a percentage of the rewards
Authors or websites? I remember reading somewhere that the software that make the transaction will be able to set up beneficiaries..
Regarding voting delegation do you know how it will work and how users who delegated their power will get it back?
I've heard both. It is something I will have to dig into some more. Thanks for pointing that out.
From what I understand, you will be able to delegate an amount of SP to another user in 'vests', and that user will be able to use the SP as if it were their own - except they cannot withdraw it or delegate it to someone else. The user who delegated it can withdraw the delegated SP at any time.
This feature sounds very interesting as it could create a market for vests. If the market were to decide the price per vest we would know how much the average people are willing to pay for more influence. However i believe curation rewards will probably prevent people from selling their vest cheap..
People could also hire curators :)
Yeah this is good too but I'm more excited about feature that could increase demand for steem :-) A steem/vest market is more interesting to me !!
