RE: Time to decentralize curation?

in #steemit8 years ago

I've liked the idea of delegated curation since the idea was first floated. Not sure I agree with forced randomization, though. I think anyone should be free to determine how much of their voting power they want to make available to a pool of curators vs. how much they want to dedicate to curators of their own choosing. Some may actually choose to dedicate more voting power to the pool, especially if the pool has an automated process that generally does a better job selecting a team of effective curators than a human could.

Sort:  

It should be opt in. Whales who opt in should have to deal with all or nothing. So opt in and you get to make your list but your list only applies for 5 days out of a week. Think of it as taking the weekends off and letting the random minnows have control for a couple of days. This is necessary for experimental purposes just so we can see whether it helps, and also to keep the whales from simply choosing all their friends who will simply vote as instructed.
