RE: A New Social Media Blockchain Challenger Has Arrived! But Is It Any Threat To Steemit?

in #steemit7 years ago

I think the bots issues is only going to become more and more intense. It's not gonna be an easy thing to permanently solve. I think if users were given tools (i.e. bot like services) inbuilt into the system, it might take some of the benefit of bots away. Not sure, just a thought.

Sort:  

One way to solve the bot issue is to just award votes purely based on SP balance, because tight now the bots are gaming the timing of the votes. That way, if someone wants to operate a bot, they would have to purchase plenty of Steem, which benefits the whole ecosystem and makes the operating of bots a more expensive endevour.
