RE: Proposing Hardfork 0.20.0 “Velocity”
If you think about, why are we allowed to up vote our on posts? That's like owning a store, pulling a dollar out of the cash drawer, buying something for that dollar, putting the dollar back into the cash register, closing it, saying an incantation, opening it, and voila, suddenly there is $1.10 in the drawer.
Do that enough times and you end up with a drawer full of money. But it doesn't help the overall economy any. No movement of "money" between participants for this magic money drawer increase.
It's almost like being a counterfeiter if you think about it.
I tried to upvote your incredibly clever and accurate reply, but steemit's upvote just sits and spins without registering (like this website can do, sit and spin on a big fat ____). I even refreshed 3 times, opened comment in new tab twice.
smh lmao.
@sornprar - I've had the same thing happen to me on occasion. Most likely it is due to the age of my comment, there is a 12 hour window before the 7 day ends that up votes aren't permitted. (It would be nice if it would indicate such on a failed vote, but it doesn't).
