As a newly onboarded, I find it bumming that in the HIVE platform, content that was posted years ago is forgotten. It's looked down upon to reblog that content even if it's evergreen.
The incentive on HIVE from what I can see, is to join challenges and vote as fast as possible to get rewarded.
If someone finds a way for good quality-evergreen-posts to earn rewards years to come you'd onboard many newbies.
I understand that a post from years ago can be tipped after the 7 days, however no one's incentivized to do that and therefore it gets forgotten.
Well I know that allowing for earnings on evergreen content is something on the list for Leofinance. It is going to be done somehow by activating earnings on new comments.
Does proof of brain currently have a mechanism for earning on old posts?

Wow! If LeoFinance pulled that off, that'd be awesome! It'd incentivize high quality content for sure.
Not sure if proof of brain has anything similar in mind but would be cool if they followed Leo's footsteps. :D
Well, they have come up with the method but have not implemented it yet. Admin spending a lot of time on cubdefi. Hopefully it happens soon enough

This sounds like a wonderful idea and we would definitely bring in more users. Youtubers earn big bucks not in 7 days but over a year as something goes viral.
7 days is not enough time for something to go viral other than on the block chain further closing us off

I agree evergreen content rewards are.something that's needed to attract established creators and would be a big selling point.

For sure! How do we find out when they'd be coming out with an update like that?
This is an interesting point that I hadn't considered... I personally don't mind reading good evergreen content without having the ability to upvote it... but I also understand the consensus I'm seeing in this comment thread: that this great content should be financially "evergreen" as well. That seems like a tall order, unless they just eliminate the age threshold entirely.
