For me, Steem isn't really a "blockchain" technology, it's a "human technology."
Has Steemit Inc seriously considered raising curation rewards to actually encourage humans to curate manually like the system would need them to for Steem to actually thrive, rather than sell their votes to bots? The above statement would indicate so, but I've not seen any discussion about this change, that's been asked for by many in the community, ever since the bid bots were introduced to the system, from Steemit Inc employers. Other than Ned pointing out that bid bots are "interesting"...
