RE: STEEM Economic Changes Update (@officialfuzzy's thoughts & concerns)

Bonus day sounds good to me. Stash a portion of the reward fund (say 10%) each day and then have "big bonus days" a few times per year.

this is how you advertise steem ^

Let's explore this...
with current reward pool ~57,600 STEEM daily, 10% would be 5,760 and if bonus day is every 3 month that would be 5,760*90=~ 518,400 which I think is quite a sum and it can even be powered up instead of giving liquid STEEM... not sure how to solve distribution yet so that system cannot be gamed.

I don't see why it would be any more subject to being gamed than any other day, after all the amount paid out is arbitrary and the mechanism is the same regardless ($8K/day now vs. $200K/day at the top price). In fact, attention and participation on the site would likely be far greater than usual on that day meaning abuse would be more likely to be noticed.

yeh. I always thought we could do it on holidays...

Like have a Christmas bonus day on the day before Christmas...
or a Halloween Trick or Treat nite...etc

People like "Bonus" like they like the word "Free".
