RE: Voting Abuse and Ineffective Curation: A proposal for blockchain-level change

in #steem7 years ago

Thanks for taking the time. I appreciate your perspective... I am often an "odd fish" because I don't approach problem solving like many people tend to.

I have always been a long-term thinker, and when I encounter something positive my first thought tends to be: "How can we turn this positive into 5-year, 10-year, 50-year benefit?"

It is an approach motivated by seeking safety... I will forego maximum profit NOW in exchange for moderate profit in perpetuity.

So getting back to Steemit and the curation rewards issue, my approach tends to be motivated by "Let's take the approach most likely to ensure there will still BE a Steemit to offer curation rewards, 10 years from now."

Thanks again for the explanation.

Sort:  

"maximum profit NOW in exchange for moderate profit in perpetuity."

then you will never be as powerful as those who seek it now. The only way to beat them is to destroy the system
