RE: Curation reverse auction changing from 15 minutes to 1 minute in hard fork 21

in #steem5 years ago

Well, I guess it was a bit annoying having to wait 15 minutes to upvote a comment and regarding people just voting posts for maximum profits, its really just the same when it can be done automatically with a bot at the right time so in my opinion there's no difference between a vote at the 1st minute and on the 15th minute.

Sort:  

I think the wait time is counter productive. Those who know it and how it works wait to vote etc. Those who don't know it most likely are giving up rewards and have no idea they are doing so. Keeping the reward the same throughout the period of time makes sense to me.

There should be less confusion and a simple system that is friendly to new community member of steemit. Again 50/50 rewards makes sense. No waiting to try and get an advantage u are simply rewarded equally.

I think no one will upvote comments much after hf21 with the new curve.

Not necessarily. Look at the nether region of the new pseudo-linear curve and a small upvote could be worth just half what it would be under linear, yet the upvoter gets 50% curation rewards on it - comes to the same 25% return... just the author gets a lot less, like one third (ouch!)

I don't think the bots are so accurate, are they? I don't really know as I have never used them.
