He did vote for himself... not sure if this makes a difference. Seems self-defeating and like a circle jerk though if a whale can loot the pool by voting for themselves. @dantheman have input?
BlockTrades isn't an exchange, it's a market maker. The steem power we have is our own, not our customers. We got $72 for voting for our own post. If we started spamming posts to take advantage of that, other whales can easily vote us down (also note that we have a max of 100 votes that "count" over a 5 day period). This is essentially one of the benefits of owning steem power, it enables a steem power holder to "advertise" their posts and make them more visible.
Additionally, I don't know how comfortable I am with the idea of an exchange using its customer's funds on its posting account to collect so many vests.
Blocktrades has balance 1,791,298.073 STEEM...Voting is by weight
What do you mean? he got so much because he have big voting weight?
i thought it depends of how much steam power has person who's voting for you.
