No, that's not true, its not a "problem with stake based accounts" haha wtf? Its just a problem with ALL new users! All new users are subject to scrutiny across ALL platforms! No away around that hah its just reality of the world! And after enuf time users WILl start earning Sp if they post valuable stuff ... Pretty much a guarantee threyll be earning SOME money maybe not MUCH but itll be SOME and itll be reflected in their stats and history and ill be able to see their followers and other metrics so yeah its fine man its not a stake based system problem lololol
we are just using stake to gauge how serious you are and its a good metric, if you can fuckin keep any SP youre not worth our time so what?
But no I don't look at SP at all when I see posts I just look at their blog and comments, I do lopok at SP but if they've been here 2 years and have like no SP I know somethings wrong... And that is a GREAT way to judge people! But it doenst box people in at all, if you can post good content you can get an upvote! But sometimes yeah SP is a good way to ensure someone is legit and yes we will have restaurants hotels and rewards clubs from steem in the future where youll be able to get free stuff and discounts just for owning Steempower
whatsup said that in his blog. Wales has been here since last 6 months and has 760 followers . Also a level 50 rep. So his account was tiny only in sense of SP.
Had he bought few thousand SP on day 1, he would have been seen as more legit in the community.
