RE: Who deserves more? Authors or curators?

in #steem5 years ago

Now here is a viewpoint that I can understand. I am neutral on the HF21 discussion because no one has given enough material explanation on why the EIP changes are good or bad. They mostly say it will be bad or good but have no real numbers to say why. Some say it will stop bit bots, but people will always find a way to make money from any system.

Only time will tell. So I HODL and wait.

There are no numbers because good/bad are qualitative factors. To show quantitatively whether it's good or bad, you have to first define what good and bad are. Most people just aren't that rigorous in their thought processes.
If you define the intended outcome, you can evaluate whether the changes will make the outcome more likely. I define the outcome as 'increasing the value of the technology and the currency that runs on it' because after all we are here to make money, aren't we?
Having defined the outcome, I don't think the EIP will help, because it pits the different marxist/capitalist cultures against each other without ever making clear that's what is happening. As soon as one side starts winning, the other side will sell their stake.

Now, if the capitalists win, then STEEM will go up because (let's face it) capitalists have more money.

Incidentally, the socialists hate my creation because it's too capitalist, and the capitalists hate it because it's too socialist. Where does that put me?

Well as long as they leave you alone to help the little guy, does it matter? Yes, I am here to earn. I enjoy the engagement and try to leave comments that enable discussions like this and find the posts complaining about quality, while not defining quality are just being negative. I prefer positive things that enable positive engagement.

It puts you in the same camp as I. That is, a camp where cases are taken on individual merits and each issue evaluated on its merits and value without feeling the need to follow a specific herd.

Maybe you should have named SBI Steem Freedom Dividend... ;)
