Eh, that wasn't my intention, but interesting you had that conclusion. :D Keep in mind that's only my TL;DR about it, but there are def. more facets I didn't cover.
With that said, I delegated in the first place to support the development of the algorithm - as @scipio and @holger80 invested a ton of time into it, which should be rewarded, in addition with supporting the experimental votes that are curating based on the algorithm.
I think it's very interesting to test the mechanics and one would think the more Steempower the better, but testing isn't done with a high amount of SP, the same way testing isn't done in production (unless they're very small changes or A/B tests)
I'm just airing these questions because I'm curious. I intend to delegate, and in fact I intend to vote on some witnesses soon. The past can leave a bad taste in your mouth but you have to get over it eventually.
The VIVA project failed due to a variety of reasons, most of which were below the level. They have stated that they will return funds, so I'm hesitant to say anything negative about them..... however it has been more than 9 months without seeing anything.
Holy shit dude... good luck recovering, not sure if funds are safu 9 months out, babies take less time than that. I've known, for example, even simple things like older game streaming websites being unable to payout and once they're a few months behind payments, rip.
But that's the thing - @steem-ua is an experiment to re-distribute wealth and UA is the algorithm showing Authority of Steemians.
Heh. If that's really what it is then I'm de-delegating right now. :D

A-fucking-men, Inertia.

I don't think I mentioned trust. I disagree with some aspects, but not all aspects.
Perhaps you mean that Witnesses should inherit trust for being witnesses?
The only witness that I ever voted for was the VIVA witness. That project took over $10,000 from me. Trust.
Did they steal from you?

"Hopium".
You might have seen that term getting thrown around here and there lately. I need that for my VIVA money.
