RE: The ability to speak freely, not earn freely

in LeoFinance5 years ago

Bidbits had 40% of the staked power and distributed to less than 2% of active users on what was mostly shite.

Bid-bots controlled 40% of steem-power and distributed it as they saw fit.

In exactly the same way that ANYONE can purchase banner ads on steemit, regardless of "quality".

And now the evil bid-bots just randomly upvote the top-earners, is that MORE than 2%?

Does any of this HELP the newb accounts?

No, distributed as a creator saw fit. The bidbots were indifferent, just went where they were called.

about 80% of the reward Steem goes to 20% of the active accounts. Pareto in play.

Yes, people with Staked Steem do. Do you? Stop voting my comments, draw back your delegations and go and vote on small accounts who you think deserve it.

Just like banner ads.

My below minimum upvotes already go straight into your precious magical rewards pool (so I'm not sure what you're complaining about), And I'm DELEGATING to small accounts because that's a much better show of support than this ridiculous "public-pool-tip-jar" notion.

That sounds promising, do you have any data?
