RE: Bloggers: Would you mind sharing 50/50 with those that upvote you?
I wouldn't mind profit sharing.. We already have curation rewards but that only really is lucrative for those with large SP holdings.
Would be an interesting project to have a bot that sends little thank you transfers for voting on a users post.. Hmmm.
Which likely ends up looking a lot like a higher curation percentage with more on-chain overhead for all those transfers. Golos had (or has, I'm not following it any more so I don't know) such a bot which implemented 50/50 (I think) curation in this way (I guess posters would need to prefund the bot or something) and became very widely used. Many curators would decline to vote on content that wasn't signed up with the bot, so many posters would use it (or not get votes).
Yes, the 50/50 bot on Golos is still operating, but is less popular now, because some more sofisticated services came.
The most powerful one, which has accumulated about 10 million Golos Power, allows you to send any amount of Golos or GbG to it along with the % of this amount you are willing to give to the services investors. The curation trail then votes with GP according to this data.
There's sort of auction, the trail votes for submissions with biggest % suggested for investors first. While people are saying that you have some chanse to get an upvote with 60% for curators in the middle of the night, the average figures are more like 85-90% for curators.
The most popular idea on Golos now is to embrace this system, allowing for authors individually to set any % for curators . There's an old and long Github issue about it.

Thank you for the update.
@smooth, that 50/50 communist bot on golos, I remember that one. I was running booster over there at the time with @inertia. What happened was that a small elite with a lot of stake became business unfriendly, so stakeholders with businesses on golos powered down, sold out and I do not think it has recovered since. For a more technical analysis of the whole golos meltdown, @inertia sure must have some fun observations. We did business there for many months, it was very educational. I hope we can share what we learned from Golos some day, so we do not repeat the mistake of becoming unfriendly to businesses.
our accounts on golos was coinbank and booster. If you want to see the blockchain or run simulations.
Hmm, right on, thanks for the share of info..
I'd not really considerd the overhead on the network.. Need to get back into considering all aspects of a design I guess before tossing out ideas.
I was in golos for a bit but have since then stopped using it as well.
