RE: Learning to love the voting power equilibrium point change

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

I agree with @ats-david and @bobbybillbob. The Alice V. Bob approach sounds involuntarily communist, in the bad sense. Thoughtful curating should be rewarded, not diffused. In this case, those who spend significant time and votes curating will be so careful to use their votes only on those that really make money, rather than on those that they think are good content. On the other hand, when we minimize the voting power of the bots, we, by default, increase the value of the human votes. So although the votes dilute after 5, even the diluted votes make up a greater percentage of the voting pool than they did before. They are worth more simply because the bots aren't factored into the voting equation as much. So it's not a total loss. And the premise is designed to preserve the humanity...which tells me the whales CARE about this platform.
