RE: Pros and cons of two versions of Steem Proposal System

in #blocktrades6 years ago

I'm wondering about how the results will turn out as many people are delegating their power away and thus can't participate in the poll with most of their stake.

@blocktrades - shouldn't it be based on stake owned? Especially considering such an important question about the future of the whole blockchain. Or do you expect everybody to quickly undelegate in order to be able to participate fully? That brings high financial (opportunity) costs and is thus impractical.

Yes, it's not a completely accurate measurement, and it will severely impact the vote of a couple of the largest stake holders (me being one of them, freedom being the other really large one). But as I mentioned elsewhere, the @dpoll guy is working on a true stake weighted system, and if the vote looks at all close, I can probably get him to run his code on the voters for each post (or even repeat the poll on his system).

Based on informal polling before this, I think I know the outcome already and I don't think it will be close (except for the one big question of which way freedom will vote). But a formal poll like this allows people to put their opinion "on the record" at least, to reduce dispute of the choice.
