Interesting. I will watch to see how it goes. It's nice to see at least a new approach.
I have no issues with people using this, but a vote trade doesn't really impact quality. However, I think it is great for distribution as at least smaller users can link up with other smaller users.
Great project.
Yes this is true. However we twnd to do well here on steem if these services support quality content. So my hope is that this will help content as content.
Automated circle jerking won't impact quality? Are you sure? Why do you think that; is it because it hasn't in the past? Or because you think it is a good idea to let vote size depend on the size of the other's persons wallet or vote?
Content-agnostic curation, especially when automated, frustrates our real content providers and drives them away.
This is yet another nail in Steemit's coffin.
As a plankton the steem-bounty service was one of my favorites. It exposed me to new content and users with no commitment to upvote anyone.
This sounds like it will reward in a matched vote instead of curation rewards.
I was wondering about the distribution point as well in terms of how large users would be affected. It sounds like it would work the same way for large users in terms of matching votes. In that case, the end result seems like as if everyone in the ring is self voting, and this service takes a cut. Hmm..... I think there's a way to get that result faster ;)
