Clever scam!

The sound of rain on a car roof.

I've got to be honest I'm a little confused by this. Are there not any kinds of rewards associated with running a full node on the steem blockchain? I thought that full nodes got some percentage of all

What sort of program are you running out of curiosity?

Well if nothing else your resources gave me a chance to objectively look at the proportions, which gives me a more accurate idea of how I feel about it. (When I just do 1 upvote for someone else with content

It's pretty useful!

Thanks for the breakdown. I just don't know what to make of this ethically. On one hand I do want to contribute and add value to people, on the other hand it seems profitable to always upvote yourself

So, if you have 100,000 steem and you encourage new people to join and help steem hit $100, you just made $99,400,000. That's a really good point that I hadn't considered in the whole incentives structure

What's hard for me to wrap my head around is why I wouldn't vote for my own posts. It increases exposure, and rewards myself for participating, which makes me want to participate more. On the other hand,

Thank you for this. Some people just need to complain...

Yeah, increasing SBD distribution is the way to bring it down fairly and organically.

The problem is that the majority of your evidence has to do with him making money on his posts, which is pretty obviously the goal of steemit.

Wait... do you mean that someone posts on Steemit with the goal of earning money? I'm just playing. I do see what you mean in that he has effectively discovered the best way to post on steemit to earn

My team is awesome. I read articles. Upvote them if they're interesting to me. Hangout. Talk with people. If you think I'm "TEAM HAEJIN" or something, I don't know what to tell you. This controversy

All I know if I appreciate the analysis and find it interesting. I don't really care about any weird teams....

I'm just having a hard time getting behind ETH-based projects on a fundamentals-basis. I guess we'll kjust have to wait and see for when Plasma launches. Right now, dApps just don't seem viable on ETH...

Yeah, it's so interesting to see all of the Raiblocks hype on Reddit, and then you realize that Steem does all of this and more. Plus it has more transactions per day than any other crypto. So hyped about

This drama is so silly... I can't even..

I need to get back into ETH before I miss the boat... Got out forever ago when it showed no activity..

Thanks for the analysis. Hard to tell what moves to make in a market like this. The only thing I know to do is HODL and BTFD.
