RE: How one voting bot can increase the value of STEEM

in #steemit7 years ago

The main key for steem the currency growth is the growth of steem ecosystem, that being all other platforms based on steem, Smart Media Tokens and at least a million of daily users. Voting bot is a cute idea, but isn't the main idea of steemit that more accounts get created, why keep people out of steemit? It could be a nice feature, but it would clearly not be as growth inducing as the things mentioned above.

Obviously. It's not INSTEAD of, but in addition. Sure, the idea is to grow the platform and steem userbase. What better way to advertise the platform and bring users than to make the AUTHORS promote their posts knowing that ANYONE can contribute to their rewards? A percentage will surely choose to join the platform, but those that won't? Can still increase the value of steem and reward authors. It's a win win situation, the way I see it.

I see, from perspective of newcomers not versed in ways of cryptocurrency could be noice if they could easily donate, they can't do that now based on current steemit functionality. Ok, we would then need to have some heavy hitting bloggers capable of attracting massive audience to pump the price for real. Small donators would also be nice (for certain bloggers only). Cool little feature, might be interesting to explore it more.
