RE: Which came first, the Engagement or the Reward?

in #steemit6 years ago

we could quickly collapse into a self-serving, reward-leeching scenario.

Unfortunately, I believe this is the scenario we have entered and I absolutely hate it. Furthermore, I am not sure how long it can last without drastic changes.

One of the foremost issues in my mind is the disproportionate amount of SP users are able to accumulate by frequently self-botting their own contributions, even mediocre ones, or engaging in constant circular voting with their friends.

It's disheartening for the users that really want to earn their rewards and strive for some degree of honesty in curation. I am inclined to think maybe this game just isn't for us.

Proof-of-brain is a wonderful idea in theory but seems to me that the ideal is unattainable when human greed enters the equation. I hope the issues can be solved somehow.
