This is in relation to sportstalk but the principles apply to all tribes
Over the past few days been hearing about how people are staking becoming whales.
How they have a responsibility to the platform
How they will upvote literally anything and spread the wealth
All great views and great thought
HOWEVER
I dont think people understand basic economics and how systems work
In order for this token to have any kind of value people need to be buying it else it aint worth shit
By giving out massive votes to people in your comments such as 'nice' 'great' with zero power, zero investment and for that 'great' contribution they are receiving a few thousand tokens and selling them at the cheapest possible price is not helping anyone
Least you can do is check the persons account see if they have something staked or have bought some or anything to justify giving out votes.
I am not saying we should not help smaller acounts as i am one myself - i dont claim to be even small im a nothing account. But you should do this responsibly as that is everyone's duty.
This is a platform where people have invested time and money its not a street corner where people hang about asking for hand outs
If we carry on the way this is going and the price declining day by day by the time anyone gets to power down wont be worth even doing.
13 weeks is a long time to power down so just consider the drop in price within days never mind weeks
Now to the one social justice warrior that says im not ever powering down im in it for life. Good for you as you sir are a moron
This platform could be great and people need to help each other develop it.
I know hardly anyone is going to read this as people dont really give a shit they just comment on stuff like 'i have shit loads of power' so they can comment and get a vote. So i can literally say anything like dog shit, ball bags, fuk sports in the ass, see told you
Thank you for the one person that did actually read though much appreciated
