RE: Support those working to expose abuse and save the Rewards Pool. Part 4 with Witness @lukestokes

in #itnt7 years ago

I have seen some re-steemers who are resteeming multiple articles in multiple laguages in a very short space of time. Based on the wide range of topics that they resteem - non consistent on any theme, it looks like their activity is indiscriminate. What are they hoping to achieve by this?

Sort:  

Sounds like they are trying to harvest curation awards. By putting their vote on a post and then resteeming, if the post they resteem gets a slew of upvotes, they get more of the curation pool.

Just a guess, but they are probably auto voting and auto resteeming top authors who are going to make a lot out of each post anyway in a hope to get a few extra pennies in curation.

Perhaps you have noted the commercial resteemers at work. A cottage industry is erupting.
