We could gamify it. A Hive Engine/Tribaldex token, which you're only awarded if more than 50% of the post's total vote weight, came from your reblog.
You could even have heavy hitters reblog spitefully. "I don't want you to get those tokens, so I'm going to reblog this quality post to my followers too."
Yeah but you are assuming it works in a super basic way and the content creator has no control.
If someone is selling a piece of art they take it to a curator on purpose.
And ask pretty please if they'll show the art to the rich people.
Doesn't matter how big the curation cut is: it's worth it.
What you're saying with this comment is that the curator is going to swoop in out of nowhere curate the art and then take a cut without permission. Clearly that's not how it should work.
I was thinking an alt entirely for the curators. Which they'd compete for.
Ah right yeah there are a lot of ways to play it when the smart contract could be anything.
I think a curator token would have to be subsidized or funded by ads to actually be sustainable though.
Pretty tough sell honestly no matter how it gets sliced.
To me it makes more sense as something Hive content creators opt into with the main token.
