Mmmm Ill do some critics about steem, and you make me think about the impact of that kind of post.
But for sure is not my intention to hurt Steem.
I trully believe that the problem are the users and not the platform. Ill write that some times. Is not the bidding voting system itself, its more like who owns bots.
I guess the system implemented in @ocdb is just the smartest way. Instead let the market for public, some criteria should be aplied.
I was thinking about changing reputation system could work. Maybe something similar as witness proxy but for users, managed by communities. Something like curation, but as a collective but to certify ussers and proyects. In wich artificial chains of fake ussers could be identify faster (yeah i think a lot about steem, in kinda in love with this proyect)
I dont know if you read my posts, because I feel identified (?)
