I agree with your point of view @techslut; I think that delegations should be spread amongst users in some way, shape or form more than they are now. I would envision a system where Steemit inc. appoints ten, twenty or even thirty community leaders to pick out undervalued Steemians that are posting fantastic content but are not really getting noticed.
It would be as simple as these community leaders picking out new candidates every month or two (maybe pick a total of 100, or even pick a lot more than that, as Steemit Inc. have a lot of SP that they could delegate between their accounts. I have not thought up exact numbers, but if new members could be delegated a couple of thousand SP for a month or two, to help them grow, this would be a great incentive for new users to stay active.
Thanks again for sharing this, really interesting!
