RE: Current Steemit Problems and Solutions

in #steemit7 years ago

Thanks for the Zipf's reference. I totally get the content wars, and even "content du jour". Stuff like TIL come and go. But they don't stick in any meaningful way. We may need to restructure how rewards are allocated. I think reputation is very important, so why not factor that into the reward?

Sort:  

if we think about it, true virality means more people like a particular post. If we factored in reputation as a determining factor for reward distibution, instead of SP power holders, this could make a difference. Having SP doesn't mean you're a good curator or someone who knows about social trends. The problem of sybil attacks could be solved by having reputation as a determining factor for rewards.

Exactly! Since it's based on vests right now, I wonder if reputation could be a factor of some sort. I assume its based on a 100 scale (maybe I am wrong). But that would be a good place to start.
