My understanding is, the same amount of steem is mined each day at a set level. The content produced only serves to provide the content to fill the blocks on the chain. Each chain produced gives the same reward. A block for the chain is completed in the same amount of time for each block. The mining process does not work the same as with bitcoin where the mining process becomes more and more expensive.
A set number of blocks will be produced each day is my understanding.
That amount is divided up by the amount of Steem powered up to provide the Steem reward value.
The mining of the Steem is not in our hands it is already pre-set.
The distribution of the reward pool through self voting systems seems to be the under lying issue?
A pie each day who gets what of the pie is not preset.
Ah. that post is more about the content than the use of the bot. the same power if used to vote elsewhere still takes the same amount of the reward pool. Regardless of where it votes to.
The power not being used on a vote will mean the pool size will increase. I do not dispute that the use of an automated pay for vote reward system provides a greater visibility to content which is not to a high standard.
That is for individual front ends to sort out. it is the front ends which provide the filters. Finding this balance between what t show and not to show on the front end is again something for the front end developers and users to determine. If a site does not want to show meme's they can restrict the display of those posts. or posts containing that tag line.
While we say it is up to us as a community to resolve these issues, the most common thing to do is attack someone about an issue and not look for a solution. The solution is in the front ends, front ends have to decide what will attract people to their front and what their membership does not want to see.
The same thing applies. All the SP / VP % of that SP % you hold. = your vote. that is set. Who gets what vote when is not set. When all the votes go down that delivers the reward.
No one has taken any more than the votes given allowed. They have not taken from anyone. That amount was already allocated to that voting power.
Wow. I love to see how responsive you are @thehive
Respect,
