One other thing. lol. Curators do not automatically get 50% of their upvote, just as now there is no guarantee of 25% return. the curation algorithm itself is not being messed with, just that the curation pool will be double the size. Hence strategic voting will still count to get larger curation rewards.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
not entirely correct... curation is stake based.
when a whale votes - they take the lions share of that curation pool on your post.
so when they upvote themselves - they get 75% and then the majority of that 25% curation too.
change it to 50/50 and its the exact same for whales. this does not halt bad behavior by whales - it gives the same result for them while punishing smaller accounts who cannot compete with the large stake based votes.
i can explain more if you like when i get home? we can continue the discussion :)
