RE: The Flawed Philosophy Behind Steemit Curation + Solution!

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

I understand your point, but imagine 99% of users (minnows) getting 5 dollars away from Steemit - this will decrease Steem value even further. I think having whales and minnows voting on good content, instead only on established authors, would increase the chances of everyone, with reasonable writing skills, to get noticed and rewarded - this way only good authors can pay their bills :D

Sort:  

ok, but you see my point. you might be nobody, with a good idea, join up. you need to pay your bills first or there is no more posts. make the curve very sharp then.

Of course, I see your point. It's always in our interest to get money back for our work. But if minnows get the option to cash out immediately after they get rewarded, someone may decide that the more accounts he has posting content from, the higher the chance of getting noticed and receiving cash from a whale.

It's better to give more power to trusted accounts - maybe that's another use for the reputation meter - the higher your reputation, the more SD versus SP you can receive?

Regardless of SD to SP ratio, my idea would give everyone a much better chance to get noticed and receive money for their work, right?
