RE: Proposed Changes to Steem Economy

in #steem8 years ago

It's just an incentive to stay powered up. Curating/Rewards are supposed to be proportional to your vest in the site. If you are powering down, then you are removing those SP from vests. Perhaps this would encourage people to only power down some of their SP rather than all?

Sort:  

Not everyone has that option. And sometimes folks just power down to keep options open. I've been doing it for a few weeks now, simply to try to understand how it works better (Ask 5 people and get 7 opinions). I power back up immediately. And it's a good way to maintain being able to pull a portion out at any time, then just power up what's left. IMO, there should be no penalty simply because someone wants to get some of their Steem out.

Exactly, it doesn't need to be an all or nothing deal... Why not adjust voting weight relative to the power down?

Or just let it fall off as the SP falls off. I'm no programmer, but this seems the most basic and simple. IMO, it's the most intuitive too.

This is also a more than reasonable solution.

I would agree with you on the current 2 year contract... But with this new proposal.. nah...
