I took a look at your idea.
I think it would have a negative impact.
If you disincentivize new users, no new established accounts can ever emerge. Professional writers, like myself, see potential in the platform because the earning potential is equal. Everything else on the site is slanted toward established authors already.
The voting power structure will right itself as more whales develop and even more dolphin scale accounts are created. Writers with real quality voices will rise, and those who either don't have what it takes to draw an audience, or have no staying power will fade, if things are left alone to even out over time.
