RE: Distribution and Curation: Ending the Infinite Circle Jerk in the Trending Section and Lifting the 99.99%

in #circlejerk8 years ago

Now my dad was a Federal Reserve shill, but he had appropriate thoughts regarding employment compensation ratios. He said, if his employer was going to pay him a certain amount, he needed to be providing them four times that much in value. He figured that whatever they were paying a worker as salary, they were probably paying him an equal amount in benefits (and what they shuck out to Uncle Sam for taxes) so that way the company was making as much from him as they were paying him.

Taking this 4 to one ratio as a minimum for the folks at the bottom of the pile sounds appropriate to me. For those just beginning , you could have an algorithm to gauge how much their content will generate for the platform over time, and give them a greater portion up front for the first few months. Then ween them back to 1/4 of it as it actually materializes after that. Then their amount could increase and move closer to 1/1. Obviously this platform won't succede if the top 3% get 98% of the rewards. The bottom 75% need to be getting a minimum 25% of the overall derived benefit from their activity (mining is a different matter of course).
