RE: An Opponent of the Exponent: Making the Case for Vshare Linearity
It does make sense, thanks! I do have to think more about your first paragraph though. I see how 2 100 votes adds up to 200 when they combine vote, but each is still multiplied by the exponent separately. 100^2 + 100^2 != 200^2 So I still think, at the moment, that exponential voting prevents sybil activity, but I could be wrong! :-)
(100 + 100)^2.
So lets say your first 100 voting power guy upvotes a post (lets assume hes the first one). The post will now have 100 voting power voting for it and get 100^2 in rewards.
Now lets say the second guy comes along and also votes for the post. Now, the post will have 200 voting power voting for it, and get 200^2 rewards.
So if the first 100 voting power vote gives him $1 in rewards, the second will give him an additional $3 (for a total of $4) and the third, if there is one will give him an additional $5 (for a total of $9)
But if these three guys all voted on seperate posts alone, they would only be assigning $3
