RE: Hardfork 19 Might Have Been a Step Too Far In the Right Direction

in #steemit7 years ago

This is a push me pull you kind of problem. We have INCREDIBLE bloggers like @papa-pepper and @jerrybanfield who stick on the trending and hot pages because they are incredible. However we also see people who buy their way to trending either by "Powering Up" with outside investments or using things like @randowhale. Beyond the paid path to trending, there are people who copy-paste valuable content and make it to trending (raking in a few hundred dollars at a time) until they're "caught" by @steeemcleaners then they just dump the account and make a new trash account to keep going.
