RE: Announcing Steem 0.14.0 Release Candidate

in #steem8 years ago

Both @klye and @bacchist have each done exposes where they found accounts that seemed to come out of nowhere to have every post those accounts made up voted thousands of dollars even when using stock photos they didn't credit. So five votes would likely not stop this, but it might make them ONLY vote for their sock puppets. This is a concerning loophole that it seems is being exploited. Have someone create a sock puppet account, very powerful whales up vote it. Instant thousands of dollars. I don't know how to fight this. Yet it seems like 5 votes won't stop this. I'm not 100% yet how this will help. I tentatively am in agreement with you @donkeypong though I do need to watch and see how it actually plays out. Good thing about beta, they can try it out. If it doesn't work they can roll it back or try something different.
