Dear blocktrades@blocktrades

The basic idea behind the new algorithm is to encourage voters to find good content, but to put them on an equal footing with voting bots.
Under the current algorithm that we’re replacing, voting bots have an advantage because there’s a short window in time to cast a vote for optimal curation rewards.

I spoke to few friends on hive and we discussed this topic. So far everyone I talked to seem to have strong opinion, that upvoting anything that is older than 1 day will be out-of-question.

Personally, Im afraid that this will only push people even more towards usage of bots.
Looking for quality content, while knowing that it HAS TO BE maximum 24hours old (otherwise we would be penalized with reduced curation rewards) would be even harder than it has been now (window to upvote posts were much higher).

That is just my own small feedback. Not complaining. Just sharing my concerns.

Aren't you concerned, that content discovery will be limited from 7 days to 24h? Noone will care and pay attention to posts older than that.

Yours,
Piotr
