RE: What's up with all the STEEM/SBD transfers to Dan, Ned, Berniesanders and all the other whales?! - JUST STOP IT! It's embarrassing

in #steemit9 years ago

It was the first time I saw it too.. And when I did, I just got that weird feeling.. So I "looked it up". Took me less than 10 minutes to find this, and there's probably like a billion other transfers with the same type of messages too..

Sort:  

So not only will the whales get fatter from massive curation reward payouts, but if they are active and known well they will also benefit from receiving transactions from users trying to get noticed and requiring any type of help. That just wants me to become a whale even more. Even though like @dantheman stated he doesn't really notice it, i think in time when the steemit user base increases and the amount of these so called transactions increase, it could actually become very profitable for the whales. The whales need secretaries. However i think in time if the word spreads that this type of transaction manipulation isn't yielding results, then it will eventually die out.

Hopefully we'll be king of whales! :D
