I will be writing something on this topic this week. I think you do bring up good points, but I also think that there is room for trails. Splinterlands has seen great success, but also had automation. For most people, botting was out of reach.
I earn a fraction on a trail what I would earn manually curating, but my life does not give me the time to do a good job. I know a few people that do a good job and when I am not voting, they vote for me. I will get more into it on my post in the next few days and will be sure to tag you.
I believe it is very important to get this thing right as POB is a really great place to be, and we should keep it that way.
PON has begun to reflect a bit of wear and tear in the price, it is evident that we do not have an infallible token to all the correction that is happening as we speak here.
It will be interesting to see who will be left when the price corrects a little more and the rewards are not as juicy as they can and are now!
It is a great experiment that will gradually purge the weak and will undoubtedly leave the most consistent!
true!
