Well my stand on the one person one vote oracle system is still not quite solid. It will be a great move eliminating the issues of the trashy trending page, not abuse and the quality content creators getting nothing.
But on the other hand, how will abuse be prevented via this system? I believe it would create floor for a different kind of abuse just as you said - users with multiple accounts, curation trails, communities with tons of users and all that. I suppose though if this change is going to come, then plans would be put in place already to curb all this.
Well it's been two long years, only 5 months for me though but my faith has grown in the platform. There are quite some things that need to be fixed though and I suppose staying just a bit longer in beta wouldn't hurt anyone. At least just long enough to get the oracle system running and tested.
The oracle need to be rock solid in order to prevent sybil attacks. That is the very reason why it's been stakeweighted since the beginning. We can't have a 1 person 1 vote situation with a foolproof verification service. If they can deliver on that, I only see upside.
Well that would be perfect then. The trend will move from getting steempower or getting whale friends to creating quality engaging content and getting loyal followers. Just as it's meant to be.
Would be just what Steemit needs to break global publicity and frustrated users are definitely gonna come back. Even better, spammers would suffocated and annihilated.
Back to the first point though; do you think the oracle system will come before the launch of Steem 1.0 or will it be incorporated with the launch?
Curious if you ever can create a system that is about the content. Isn't it just a time before a bot can write like a human. I think it's more about trust and relationships then the content can be whatever.
Exactly! I was just thinking the same thing a couple days ago. It's a popularity contest not a writing contest. It will always involve money in every aspect you can imagine. It's all about quality relationships and consistent quality communications. No voting system will change this.
That would be a question for @ned :-)
Yeah, I mean there are already people that control hundreds or thousands of accounts, I wonder how they will be able to sort that out.
