Well, I would definitely look at the top ones and try to present this to them.
If one thing my short steemit lifespan taught me is that knocking on doors, no matter how big, works.
I think this idea has a lot of merit, and so I would love to hear what those top witnesses think of it and try to get the aboard...
cool. 🙏
Spending money on "researching and developing the Steemit website" - Boooo!
Honestly there are ideas in this post that are much better... And with 200 million dollars, holy crap these bastards could built the absolute best possible platform and user experience imagineable!
With a billion dollars?
Why the fuck is Steemit so shitty if they could spend a billion dollars on improving it!
Okay sorry I'm not trying to diss Steemit, I love it! But I did not know that there was a fat pile of money sitting somewhere that was looking for ways of making Steem more attractive...
I know you upvoted it but did you actually read my latest post? It was about a new front-end / new conceptualization of the Steem experience...
If you get in touch with any of the witnesses, try pitching them this idea!
I just want to see the day that something like this comes together... And I'll be happy whoever whatever way it can be achieved... I'm gonna try to get some sketches done for my next posts about it...
Peace Rok!
Great idea about setting up community accounts that can further incentivize user participation in the eco-system... Even beyond your idea of voting for projects, it could be a staked-thing like voting for witnesses, lol.
Although that would be heavily undemocratic in the current format of Steem hahaha, but hey, plutocracy does have its perks
And hell yeah, I also believe that the Steem blockchain has the power of funding and supporting projects that virtually no other system in the world has the power to do... Charities? forget it...
A super awesome self-funded growing community? Yeah, that could work...
Directly funding people's actions via blockchain reward pool xixi
don't get me wrong - I'm not suggesting putting the funds into developing Steemit here, but rather growing the ecosystem of apps on the Steem blockchain.
Personally, I don't know how much further Steemit can be pushed - whereas there's alot of merit to the reasoning that advancements will be made with the development of niche communities.
I think the merging of such communities with a fusion of protocols and different apps and blockchain interfaces may have much more potential, and far greater opportunities ahead with other ways to utilize the blockchain and rewards pool outside of Steemit alone.
And...
Holy shit. That linked article is GOLD.
