Whatever, I don't mind witnesses getting good tips, they deserve it for the work they do. There would be no Steemit without them. Show me a system that is not rigged. Doesn't exist.
Makes no difference if I earn in SBD or Steem to me.
One thing I don't see discussed is how would payouts for posts be determined if not by SBD? In Steem? If so, pegged to what? Today's price? $1 USD?
When we see our potential earnings next to our post in SBD, what would it read if we made that change?
That's not a serious problem. Just keep current $ denomination is one way, though $ price will be changing.
Change denomination to steem is another way and I personally think this is better way to go.
Or replacing SBD on a post with USD. Easy for noobs to understand.
