I have nothing against alt coins. The market can decide what they're worth.
I'm against alt coins being used to buy votes on here. Not only do they serve to undermine honest voting like all other forms of content indifferent voting behavior, they have the additional affect of causing people to dump Steem to pump their own altcoin.
Therefore, I have been and will continue to target these services with my downvotes to make it as unprofitable as possible to use them.
I dont even mind the dumping of steem to prop up an altcoin. Its a free market.
The problem occurs when the following happens:
Steem dumped into SE altcoin - altcoin purchase of steem vote - payout - Steem dumped into SE altcoin ...
The negative effect is two sided. Downward pressure on price + oldsteem bot use.
Thats why i say that would be worse along with not being able to track it as easily.

So, are you going to downvote those over-the-top SCT posts?
They've said they're shutting down shop (the vote selling part at least) on the the 1st of Oct so I'm leaving them alone until then.
