RE: Should We Raise Curation Rewards From 25/75 To 50/50?

[vibesforlife]

Hmmm, people with higher SP does not reach the poors always. So i think it would not help the existing ecosystem anyways. Bot services will keep running and people with huge SPs will get the extra 25 from pockets of genuine content creators.

In addition even if they reached them they couldn't support them anymore as good as before, because they themselves would get a bigger piece of the rewards (as curation) instead to give most of it to the supported author ...

Great reply. That is a real concern I agree but the rich and the tech geeks getting richer is already how Steem seems to work sadly. Steem already is a rigged game against the poorer people on the platform like the traditional financial models. So what do you think we can do to help this situation ?

Current situation is bad for content creators.
And the move of making it 50/50 would sadly make the situation worse but they will most probably do this since the big guys are rich here and they are thinking about just their pockets. No community feeling, no user base retention worries.

What can be done to improve situation is :

1. Whales can be generous in random upvoting of good content. I joined steemit in 2017 when it was blooming and random whale voting was the reason of motivation for masses. I understand whale/people with huge sp does not have time to do the charity voting but I mean someone need to think about it as a community.

But i understand since no one cares, at the end of day it all about profit and that is why bot system came into picture and masses left steemit in mid of 2018.
