Originally I thought that the 50/50 split was good between Creators and Curators here on ProofofBrain but the more I think about it and the more I read the many arguments for and against it I am now convinced that a 75/25 split is the best idea...
75% for Curators/ Investors.... and 25% for Creators.
We need to encourage Investment and good Curation here on POB.
If we get more Investors and Curators it will drive up the price of POB .... as soon as the price of POB goes way up you will get many more Investors, and when Curators realize they earn more from Curation you will get more Curators, .... as the price goes up and the Curation rewards grow you will also attract many more new Artists and Creators to the Platform...
I think this is a very good idea and the Best way forward here on Proofofbrain.io
IMHO off course.
As a Creator who has realized that Investment and Curation is more important. Without investors and Curators a Creator earns nothing... except maybe they have a basement full of paintings.
I thought they meant 75 to the author and 25 to the curator. If thats the case I wouldn’t mind it but still believe 75/25 is too drastic. Something like 60/40 or 55/45 would be better imo
That is what they are talking about ... I wanted to make the opposite point that Curators and Investors should earn more from Curation and Investment in POB.
Make it 60%/40%
That would be more appreciated.
75% is way too big, and 25% is way too little for people putting in efforts to create contents.
I agree that Curators are actually supposed to earn more, because investing in a certain project and holding on to fully support isn't easy. So their time and money should be appreciated, but then, 75% feels like robbing.

This topic is still very relevant, and I think that if we go a little deeper we can break it down a bit.
Although it is a great incentive for those of us who are just beginning to make a life and career in pob, it is something that in the long run will not benefit much, if we look at it in the long term in our path of fixed-term savings in pob, it will not be very lucrative.
The problem must be that the current whales can give a little more variety to their vote, although it is tempting to always give a vote to the same author, I believe that new creators can emerge.
And it is there where perhaps it becomes much more complex for it, it is something that is currently working, and I suspect that you want to make this decision thinking a little about socialism and not in a capitalist way.
Historically socialism has never worked!
My kids love Socialism.... they have had everything handed to them for 16 years. I hope they get a job soon.
Hmmn if creators earn 25 and curators earn 75, it will mean that creators are spurred to become creators so that they can maximize the rewards they get from creating by investing it. Then creators don’t have to do any other thing other than curate and chill while their investment keeps growing. That’s cool stuff

Well.... you will always need both. But it seems to me that the biggest incentive to Creation these days is a High Value of the reward ... Ie : POB.
I have noticed that suddenly all of the Trending Creators on Hive are adding the #proofofbrain tag ... you want to know why ? Higher rewards from POB. That is the honest truth.
Good strategy. I hope it lasts

It gives people incentive to hold and stake as well. I think that would be a smart move. I think otherwise you are going to be endlessly fighting tag abuse and people who are just dumping the token as soon as they get it in their accounts.

Perhaps, a percentage like this can be seen as something very "aggressive" on the part of the curators.
Creators will earn more since there are so Many more Curators and Investors giving Rewards
It was a great feeling to move from being a Creator to a Curator / Investor.
It is something I have thought about recently and you bringing it up makes it cross my mind again. While I am not in favor of changing everything, such as changing it on the Hive layer, if a consensus can be reached with a 75% majority of POB holders (1 vote each) are in favor of this change then perhaps. If the decision is made and carried out by a minority (under 25%) then I am not sure we are practicing decentralized consensus. Perhaps it doesn't need to be this way, but it could be. Can we even get 75% of POB holders to vote on this?
If I understand this right, one becomes a curator by voting for posts from someone else? Then most of the people on hive are curators. No matter if they actively curate, or just set an autovote. They are curators. To pay 75% of the rewards for curators is overdone imo.
Creators need to invest much and much more time to write a decent post, and draw attention to their blog. Yes for the last part you need curators again. But both are very much needed. However, curating can be very easy by just setting auto votes ... YES I know that's not what you mean, but let's be realistic here. The majority will go for this option and farm curation rewards. While the content will get less because people stop creating because the creator earns much less, for much more effort.
Not something I would choose for.
Both are needed, so imo 50/50 is the fairest option here.
To be a valuable Curator you probably need to have 1, 000,000 Hive or POB ... so it’s a pretty big investment. About $1,000,000 USD.
I'm working on it.
This certainly would be an interesting model to try out. I hope it won't be implemented on pob but maybe another tribe could run with it.
Certainly, from a valuation perspective at least. A Basquiat without his patrons would probably go for a few hundred dollars. There was a very interesting study about the valuation of paintings being determined more by the social circles of the artist.
Without Patrons of the Arts there are no Arts,.... only starving and dead artists.
75% for Curators/ Investors.... and 25% for Creators.
encourages too much concentration of tokens, the largest stake holders will accumulate too much. I'm more in favour of wider token distribution, with more decentralized content curation.

Well ... if you are a good manual Curator with many millions of POB power you can hand out a lot more POB. And not just reward your same friends every day... like happens now on Hive with Autovotes
Most artists on Hive receive 0 rewards for their hard work... I think 25 % of something is better than 100% of nothing. Especially when POB hits $100 .... soon
You can't judge a post by the title even when it isn't dishonest click-bait. I really thought this was the other way around.
I think the rewards split is fixed. We're a matter of weeks into this 192 year long distribution schedule and people want to change it already. Sheesh.
I think 50/50 is good ... I was just arguing from the other direction to bring it back to 50/50
I was being a bit thick taking you literally there.
I was being a little bit hyperbolic and cynical at 1st but then I started to think from an Investors point of view and a rising price of POB.
Yes. You definitely can’t judge a post by its Title. I guess I should say 75/25 (Curator/Creator) in the Title ...
I think the task of writing good content would be affected by this. Not putting in the effort to write if I only get 25% of the pie!
Well if POB goes up to $100 due to investors investing then 25 % of $100 is a lot more than 50% of $ 1 ...
