Sybil voting is a great point!
Of course flip side of the coin is it certainly would increase STEEM account creation numbers, which could help STEEM marketing w/o necessarily lying LOL.
Maybe if STEEM implemented a VOTE ONLY for"Subscriber/Follower" type function,
then Bittrex could create a link for their registered users to subscribe directly onto Bittrex's STEEM profile; then Bitrex could set up individual coin-voting posts onto STEEM while letting their customer base vote in a somewhat locked and controlled environment.

I'd rather see the funds Steemit reserved for account creation (each new account is at the moment worth $7) be used for legitimate users and not someone who would register a bunch of non-contributor value-taking accounts to vote for coins to be added on an external exchange.
I agree with this. Steem works if there are real users, not shill accounts. I get enough spam on twitter. I'm not familiar with the Steem platform or community enough to know what the right answer is yet so this feedback is extremely valuable.
I may try it in a limited way on the coin suggestion post I made earlier today.
