That variable HBD interest would get abused by people creating lots of accounts, but I understand it was hypothetical. Small accounts can grow quickly if they make use of the various ways to earn. A few good votes could make them much more than they earn on HBD in a year. I think they should look to power up at least part of what they make. Bigger accounts do get more respect as it shows you care about and have faith in Hive.
My own account is growing fairly slow, but I can still hope for 15% over a year even without HBD savings. That excludes what I make from the games, which mostly gets compounded. I do plan to take some out to fiat to pay for a few treats. I think I deserve that.
Small accounts should not be too focused on getting whale votes as those are rare and there's a lot of competition. If you can build a loyal following of smaller accounts the votes will add up. I always say engagement is key.
All good suggestions and yes it was an absurd hypothetical to drive home a point.
It is a good idea for people to focus upon gaining a following which they can start to build a "brand" around. That is how growth takes place.
Engagement in the form of commenting is a great way to gain that.
