I haven't dig further into the algo . But with what control can you upvote a post ? Stake ?
Then what if people with criticisms buys a lot of stake and then upvote a criticisms post ?
I don't know if it is stake weighted or not. I've glanced at the landing page but have no interest in using a site with a small userbase. Outside of possibly being paid to post,what incentive is there? Why rely on any project Bytemaster is the head of? Why ? Because it exists and uses the same codebase as BitShares?
Ohhh I can be paid to post? Give me a break for once.
It'll probably go to the moon because of my negativity. If it does it'll be one more thing where I chuckle about over beers.
There are legitimate reasons to use it in the interest of BTS. Shared codebase means that Bytemaster in theory would ask for less money to integrate improvements. More testing is done. Perhaps he follows through with what he says ?
Still, just not my thing. It is a freemarket thing right. If you want to go start up BTS discussions there feel free.
As far as I can tell Steemit points is brownie points v2, but not even fungible so a sucker can buy them. Are smart people who have the potential to make a decent wage going to use such a site for the few dollars they make??
Please inform me of any misconceptions. I fought FUD at the expense of my integrity back when. FUD is not something I wish to create now. I still and will always be a fan of BTS. Long live BitShares!
Just need to stop the anti-dillution bullshit and dig up some new devs since the crew seems to have sold out... There is a chance and thats why i have yet to claim my vested BTS.
What I question myself about is the guys who work on the project. I'm sure they're great guys. Almost all devs are. It isn't an easy way to make a living if you are a real dev. It may pay well, but not for the lazy. My negativity does wear on me a bit, but then letting truth v5 be the new thing also wears on me.
Anyway, I have to stop typing.. I start becoming truly negative by my own standards. I start addressing those "intractably" bitter comments but lay on the delete key. looool.
