RE: The Steemit Tragedy of The Commons

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

Creating voting etiquette will always only go so far, i think solutions have to be in the structure of the economy.

Right now i think the economics of post reward rounds are a bit flip flopped. The initial phase has too much weight, too much power. It should be a test phase that doesn't consume so much of the networks inflation resources. This should be a test phase for posts that leads to a longer more thought out payout period.

I think that the first curation round on posts should be slower not in time, but in monetary reward. Meaning there should be a lower percentage share given for the initial payout round of any post, and that the 30 day round should have a greater potential payout, or a larger share from an upvote compared to the initial round.

This would slow down the hype train that happens around voting, a race that rewards selfishness rather than quality. If more is allocated after the initial test for any blog post, this would allow for more long term attention to high quality posts that take time to be digested, and responded to and more carefully curated.

Very interesting idea. This could disincentivize bot voting in the initial round, as the reward is much less, and perhaps make whales much more conscious about their votes.
