RE: The Reports from the Witnesses 2018-04-01

in #witness-category6 years ago (edited)
  1. Is there a difference between rewards on threads and rewards on comments?
    I noticed that on a thread, the author can self upvote immediately, but not on comments.
    I saw a claim that there is a difference.

  2. If a thread or a comment bears rewards over 0.02$ 7 days past its posting and it gets deleted, does its author get rewarded, or not?
    What if it is a reply to a thread or a comment that got deleted?

  3. I saw a claim that some services/"applications" charge fees on posts not made through them.
    For example, if I give busy.org or ChainBB or dmania or dlive or dtube or dsound my active key (busy.org no longer accept posting key like they used to), but I post through steemit, are they still able to tax me?
    Someone claimed that he was answered that it is impossible, but the code of it is long.
    In this case, is there a difference between a thread and a comment?

  4. What is "comment_benefactor_reward"?

  5. The operators of the STEEM blockchain are called witnesses and are paid by the blockchain.
    Who are the operators of the steemit blockchain and what pays for their costs?

  6. What is a steemd node?
    Does it mean that steemd.com became decentralized too?

Sort:  
  1. No. The steemit.com UI doesn’t have an auto upvote checkbox, but you can still upvote your comments if you want. Behind the scenes they work the same.
  2. You cannot delete a post/comment if it has non-zero rewards.
  3. If you have given them your keys, then it is technically possible, but afaik these interfaces only charge the “tax” for posts/comments made through their interface.
  4. As the author of a post/comment, there is the option to share a portion of the author rewards with other users.
  5. There is no Steemit blockchain. There is only the Steem blockchain. Steemit runs on the Steem blockchain. Witness pay is described in the bluepaper.
  6. A steemd node is an instance of the Steem blockchain.
  1. You probably mean if it has positive rewards, because I recently deleted a comment with negative rewards, and showed it to you a week or 2 weeks ago.
  2. Can I verify their histories of fining customers through a blockchain explorer?
    If so, will it appear as comment_benefactor_reward in a blockchain explorer when I get rewarded on a post not posted through their service?
  3. What runs steemit and what pays for it? Which computers does it run on?
  1. Interesting. I had always thought it was any vote. Learned something new :)
  2. It should be verifiable via the blockchain explorer, but I am not familiar with how it is represented.
  3. Steemit, Inc. runs steemit.com. They are funded through the STEEM that they own.

It starts with a 3, but steemit/STEEM is so wonderful you can not even read it correctly, and once edited, not through a blockchain explorer either.

  1. So steemit.com is completely centralized?
    I read that it is is a decentralized platform/website on top of a decentralized blockchain.
    I do not remember the exact quote or its source.
    This concept is even worse than I thought before.
    The STEEM concept is nothing than a blockchain, that being unsustainable as a blockchain aside, is also destined to tax its users via obligatory interface services to it.
    Dan threw whomever bought his STEEM or SBDs and did not sell on time under the bus.
    Yes, I know he is not an official here anymore, and it does not reduce from the correctness of what I wrote.
    He could have made steemit maintenance a part of STEEM maintenance.
    He just preferred not to.

Steemit.com is run by one company, but the code is open source.

  1. I don't think so
  2. Author and curators get rewards as with Posts. A comment that has been upvoted/replied to cannot be deleted (but can be edited)
  3. and 4. If you post via some applications, they have a benefactor reward. You can also set these for your own posts, but not using the Steemit interface. @dtube has a 25% benefactor reward for using their site, Steemit.com is 0%.
  4. The nodes together form the Blockchain i believe, but am not 100% on this
  5. https://steemit.com/steem/@jesta/building-a-high-availability-steemd-node-for-web-apis May help
