RE: Rethinking The Position of Upvote Bots in the Steem Ecosystem (without SMTs)
This is by far the best post I've seen about constructive ways of dealing with what is fast becoming a huge problem for us. I've been talking about this with one of my closest friends on the platform, ( @meesterboom ) since it all began. We are principled people and more importantly we LOVE steemit and abhor anything that could be so damaging to it, and we've been doing our best to discourage people from jumping aboard the vote buying train.
Definitely resteeming and hoping your ideas will get pushed through for damage control for our beloved site.
Thanks for your comment, @dreemit.
The challenge we face is how to design a future for both. A future within the blockchain structure of Steem. It would be all too easy to call them advertising providers and take them out of the blockchain as such. But that would limit them to only those sites which want to integrate them. That is not an option IMHO.
