RE: A Case for Stake-weighted Voting?

in #steem6 years ago

Would be interesting to see some type of vote scoring system like 90% of the score is based on stake weight and 10% is based on the total number of votes. I don't like the thought of being able to buy victories, but just creating large numbers of spam accounts to boost polls doesn't feel right either.

Maybe the answer is when the poll is created no new accounts can vote after the poll creation and a snapshot is taken of SP for accounts and that's what stake you get to vote with in the poll. I know suggestions are always easier than implementing said ideas, but worth a thought I think.

Yeah I think that is worth considering.

I did think of a what if < 1000 SP = 1 vote, and then every 1k SP owned is an extra vote. It could be worth a look to see if there is any scope there.

I think this is definitely worth implementing.

Totally agree. I don't think it'd be too hard to code either...

The account created date would be a really quick job.
