I really don't have the answers to the various ills of Steemit, but it's good to have the discussions before it really takes off. I don't even know if vote selling will scale to tens or hundreds of millions of users. I guess it could if they all decide to delegate to them. This is all an experiment with new business models.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
It's a good point. I hope there will be SP left to delegate to all the projects that grow the network, @steemhunt one in mind at present.
It would be sad if something else came along and failed to get the SP (although perhaps Steemit inc would do the honors like with dtube and utopian) because everyone was delegated out to bots.
Maybe when this time comes the big players will pull some out of the bots for the sake of the blockchain, who knows.
I'm interested to see what steemit do with all their steem. They've said they would be distributing it somehow
I'm hopeful it will be released steadily and carefully at the right time, too much to soon may not be a good plan but perhaps there will be some going to the communities that are working well.
I think there is a big potential that they will do a partial clawback of what is delegated to some of the apps, maybe leaving more for those who have been developing their apps the most and using their delegations efficiently, and then a distribution to some of the fastest growing/strongest communities that pop up to spur interest in the user-side of things after the apps have been given some time to mature. I do not think they want the apps to collapse completely in the absence of their delegations, however, because undoubtedly many users and communities will continue to rely on their use.
Yes this makes sense and could well happen once the apps have 'enough' SP to adequately reward on their own.
I agree with the communities aspect - much development work has seemingly gone into this, and so it would make sense to give it a 'push'.
Cheers
Yeah, exactly what I was thinking.
