Another 36 cents wouldn't motivate many but that's not the audience this approach is targeting. I'm thinking of the whales that are currently earning only 200+ Steem a week from curation. With 50% curation rewards they could be earning 400+ Steem a week; an additional 200+ Steem. This should encourage some of them to undelegate from bots and actively engage in curating content.

have any whales weighed in on the idea?
I had some initial support from a few large accounts but they have gone quiet recently.
seems like this whole place is going quiet with the $1 STEEM
Activity has been falling with the price. Dropping close to and now below $1 is a tipping point for many. If you are here for the long-run and don't plan on selling your Steem anytime soon. The low price is not such a big deal. You also need to consider that most other alt coins are doing just as bad.
yup, I saw a fairly high reputation poster was powering down today, funny how some people choose to sell at what is hopefully the bottom. I have said for a long time I would buy some if it went below a dollar and I might do that, it's not much to lose.
