I feel like they should just move to a reddit voting system. Everyone's vote weighs the same. Get rid of delegation and paying for votes (as much as possible). You'll still get stupid content upvoted to the top due to bots - but that happens on reddit as well.
And honestly, most of the $100+ posts I've seen aren't very high quality. There's some pictures and a few lines of writing about something semi relevant. Then it gets $100 or more. The reason that happens is due to steempower and weighted voting - a stupid system. It needs adjustments, somehow.
