RE: Thoughts on the @Haejin Flag War
I’ve randomly looked into in the past a couple of the lower upvoters someone like him gets. They followed a very “interesting” pattern.
- Sign up for a free account
- Followed one person right away
- Voting for one person they followed
Would be interesting if someone did some analyzing on who is voting for this person. Perhaps the couple I've checked into myself where just an outlier. Some huge changes need to be made on Steemit. Otherwise, you will always have this issue. Part of it could be fixed with next hardfork.
Another part is people just chasing after curtailing rewards. They rather give a rich man 10 cents then a poor man 10 cents because it could pay better least for how they go about it.
It is interesting just how much of a social experiment this site is turning into it. Do you wish to have ethics and morals and make little or do whatever it takes and make out like a king.
While I wish you luck in creating a new tag there are just too much-undervalued contents out there as it is for me to want start devoting a portion of my voting power to another cause. I’m just to spread out as it is I’ve not even been keeping up in a few places I should be.
Trending and even what shows up in my feed now is starting to get rather disgusting. Just how little substance is required to have a post with huge dang rewards.
Thanks, I was more hoping for a small chunk from a big whale or two.
I enjoy watching the social experiments play out.
I was just commenting on someone else's post that the quality and quantity of posts/comments seems to be going down the drain recently. Assuming because of lower crypto sentiments in general (listening to a podcast by crypto enthusiast that are saying the number of twitter follower they are getting is drastically lower as well) along with the lowering of the SBD price.
A few people are getting frustrated to the point their quality is suffering because they just can’t stand it anymore that nonsense garbage that is making a killing.
Best I could do was recommend them finding communities that support their kind of content.
Ultimately I think its going have to be more than just a tag. Someone (if its not already been done) needs to create a community with a discord channel, and bunch of other resources to support and help push up better quality cryptocurrency blogs.
Issue with just a tag is anyone can choose to use it whenever they want. Even more so if that person intent is to bring in as much as possible without giving it a second thought.
As I said just putting out feelers. A tag isn't the final solution. I don't have time to do everything though and was just offering a suggestion.
If you would like to help with this I can set-up a discord server real quick and send you an invite.
I don’t have the time or energy. I’m already to spread out in dozens of other projects as it is. There also a fair amount of PR issues. Some rather talented programmers, software engineers, and experts would need to be lead on doing the undertaking that would be required.
I reach out a couple months back to some experts i know. They simply don’t wish to get involved with this platform in particular due to certain things going on. They didn’t want to be seen as endorsing it.
Perhaps someone in the future will have the skillsets, contacts, time and most importantly the money to do it right.
I was looking at places like these and thinking someone create much better. https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=POLONIEX:STEEMBTC
Something massive could be built here over time.
Live charting, news, blogs, an exchange with fait entry/exit node and digital assets, all tied into 1 platform with some of elements running off steem blockchain.
It would be a massive undertaking. I'm simply not the guy and I more then realized that quite a long time ago. That's not even getting into all the legal red tape and issues.
Lol I must be dreaming way too small because that's way more than I was thinking of doing.
You can DM me on discord, but interested to hear why they didn't want to get involved on the platform or to be seen as "endorsing it".
Shout out CryptoStreetPod eh? Hahaha. Twitter followers as an indicator is an interesting theory. Maybe one that should be expounded on in a #cryptofeed post? 😎
