Well, back then you could definitely tell who the whales were voting for.
And, as a minnow, you never knew who to vote for, because your puny vote wouldn't get a post to the 2¢ minimum payout... and thus would be wasted. Or, the game of front running whale votes.
True, but with the current situation I just feel we don't even need a voting system anymore, we may as well have an bots only site 🤔
