That said, typically I don't have this much time to engage in discussion. But today you found me during a free time, so I will explain.
You shouldn't self-upvote. It is frowned upon in the community. Why? My upvote is worth $15, if I self upvote 10 posts/day. I will make $150/day everyday. Would you like that?
Accounts like blocktrades single vote is $130. If he self-votes would you like that? If top 50 accounts self-votes, then we can take out the entire reward-pool and no reward will be left for you. Would you like that?

FWIW, I think there's a huge difference between self-upvoting one post a day and going full haejin and self-upvoting 10 posts/day. Never go full haejin.
It's not something that I have an opinion on. The issue would be that a person who holds a lot of power on the blockchain would be using it to give more and more to themselves. I can see how that could potentially create a very big problem. I think that if cryptocurrency and blockchain are to grow to a point where they have a very big impact on people's finances, and if as much as I think will be run on a blockchain in the future is on the blockchain in the future, then I think steps should be taken to prevent power from getting into too few hands and to prevent the abuse of that power. Cryptocurrency I think is built with decentralization at its very basis which is at its core about power not being centralized. So I think Hive would do well to build a system and implement policies on the blockchain to prevent this. With that, it would seem to me that the inability to self upvote should be implemented on the blockchain. I would love to hear anyone who's reading this' thoughts on the topic.
Edit: Also, I'm confused by this:
There is no 'issue'
This is not something I am doing
Didn't you downvote OP, and he has screenshots of you telling him you take issue with him self upvoting. Can you clarify what you meant by above?

I did. I said I do not self upvote.
It's something I've been bragging about on Hive for years. This feature shouldn't even exist.
