Hi @exyle
I think we need higher curation rewards, because content without users is worth less than with users. More Users come if there see the system works.
In addition, Steem code should support the most profitable way. At the Moment there are delegate to bots.
With 75% curation and 25% author rewards, authors should also power up, because the return to reward their followers is greater.
Say it is more unlikely that an author sold all rewards, because he gets more Steem in return when he builds his community and rewards.(
self-reinforcing process)
The Followers votes not only for one author but also for others. This is how Steem distributes itself more efficiently.
An investor who invests 100,000$ or more gets a better return on Steem. At 75% Steem also has a much higher value than at the moment. ( and we need this ones)
I know authors are afraid to earn less. But 25% of $ 20 is more than 75% of $ 5.
From the point of view, how an economic system works, that would be the solution that economists would suggest.
I would be interested in your opinion.
Best regards
