Maybe if we can figure out a way to avoid the delegation abuse potential I mentioned above...

I think that needs worked into your magical formula that allows me my first purchase for my chess like moves! Ha ha!

Maybe the service could only be paid for in SBD that got burned (sent to @null), like promoted.

There's an account doing something along these lines, I believe it's @promoted. Upvote bot that rewards using the built-in promote tool that burns SBD, helping with inflation.

Sounds like a good idea. I believe no one has the private key to @null - but the SBD still exists?? An SBD destruction process is still being planned I read somewhere??

A fair point. I guess null technically has a lot of SBD. It would be quite a sleeper heist if someone had the key for it and held onto it until "the right time(tm)".

Ah, yes, but what if someont at Steemit Inc stashed the private key away somewhere at creation? I assume it was available to someone at some point.

Looks like it has had 102475 Steem transferred to it!

Nice conspiracy theory :)

Wow, is that all? People really don't use promoted, do they?

They'd need a formula to modify it by your stake, but then you could get refilled at a low power and immediately get a huge delegation or buy-in...

Game-theory thinking always leads one towards the path of easiest abuse first...

The daily rewards pool is really just like a game of chess - a zero sum game as people use their Kasparov-like moves to take the biggest share! :)
