RE: Steem experiment: Burn post #4

in #steem7 years ago (edited)

Hi @smooth, i understand why you have created this idea, and i agree there are a lot of excessive payouts on the platform recently - there also appears to have been a massive spike in people using upvoting bots and this may also be aiding to the problem.

However, from a genuinely questionable point of view, should your project grow big enough have you thought how this will have a knock on effect through the whole of the community?

I mean, this will surely have a huge impact on the minnows trying to get started on the platform in good faith rather than directly affecting those that are abusing their power. Even though there will be less in the pool the whales self upvoting will still be making a huge amount - which overtime will still lead to a huge inequality on the platform.

What is going on at the moment is pretty sad, of course those raking it in wont be feeling it and when theyve made their money they can just pack their bags and leave. Its just unfortunate there is no obvious solution
