RE: Steemit Update: HF21 Testnet, SPS, EIP, Rewards API, SMTs!
At this point the opportunity cost of it taking 13 weeks (6.5 weeks average) to power down isn't very high.

The vote selling economy on steem is not a valuable niche I'm quite sure you misunderstood my intent here. I meant valuable in the sense that people can make money doing it. I didn't mean valuable in the

No, powering up also lets you vote on content and earn curation rewards as well as vote for witnesses.

The vesting interest doesn't do nothing. It allocates more of the costs of 'real' inflation (i.e. the other categories) to non-powered-up investors. We could agree or disagree on whether that it is a good

As discussed elsewhere it has the effect of allocating the other (real) inflation between powered-up and non-powered-up investors such that powered up investors pay a bit less and non-powered up investors

Redirecting from SP interest ends up increasing overall effective inflation. In reality, the only effect of SP interest is to allocate the other inflation costs between powered-up and non-powered-up investors.

Just run a little simulation with a few weeks of old data That method is completely invalid since the entire purpose is to change behavior.

However for most users the chances of a large account coming along and upvoting their post will remain small, even if the shift in incentives does change behaviour There is more to it than that. An enormous

The RC situation will likely improve somewhat once this is implemented because farming via small comment rewards (some of which already does happen now) will likely stop. I don't know if it will make a

The dust threshold has more to do with added processing costs at the blockchain level than anything else. Every payout is a significantly expensive operation in terms of resources so there is a reasonable

Downvotes are still unincentivized and rely on altruism and volunteer work for effort. It is important not to allow that to be attacked by ramping up the necessary effort. Keeping rewards concentrated

Circular vs. self-voting isn't the point at all. The point is solely that everything is visible so it can be downvoted if the content itself (or at least the story surrounding it) doesn't justify the reward.

The question is how will we track and measure how much value a funded project is provided? There are blockchain history elements generated for all payouts, just as there are for content payouts today.

We need to fix the economics so this isn't viable. As long as it is viable, someone will do it.

That sort of simulation is entirely worthless because it doesn't account for changing behavior, which is the entire point of it. Downvotes absolutely should hit the author (as well as the other curators,
