I gotta say that I'm a fan of the self-voting ban. I don't get why Hive even allows it, as the monetary aspect is so clearly misaligned with what a self-vote would normally be intended for.

The problem with trying to ban self-voting on Layer 1 is that folks can easily form alt accounts and 'self vote' from those.
That danger still persists with VYB. However, if someone is daring enough to self-vote on VYB using one or more alt accounts, they risk a permanent tribe-wide mute once they are discovered -- and they will eventually be discovered, because we will be developing circle-voting metrics and those will no doubt help uncover alt-based self-voting activities.
But if you delegate to a curator account and it vote on your post you are effectively self-voting right?
So a way to nullify the power delegated to the curator when voting on the person lending the power would be needed to truly ban self voting
Good point. This definitely deserves further exploration and discussion.
