RE: Resteem cliques, community discovery, Steem, and social platform mechanisms
The last speculation I haver heard is that of the 105K accounts, less than half are active, about 3K are real people..the rest are bots.
Gaming the system in other words.
The 're-steem' feature looks more like a bug all the time.
Are there rewards for resteeming? I may have missed something when it was first added to Steemit. Other than providing more visibility for the shared author, does the account sharing benefit in some way? Thanks.
There are no first-order rewards for resteeming. But if you also upvoted the post (curated), you're boosting its ability to earn you second order rewards (curation rewards).
Thanks - Your explanation makes sense to me.
Where did you hear that? I'd be interested to read that info myself. Thanks
