RE: Case 7: raping the reward pool with 1700+ accounts - things are getting serious!
This is the one thing that worries me about the value of the steem coin.
If the market believes that too many individuals are gaming the system, the perceived value of the currency will drop.
That's one of the reasons why we need to try and combat these cheats!
Which is precisely why Steemit needs to ACTIVELY PURSUE building a reputation (especially among the "penny miners" of the web) as a platform that is RUTHLESS about any kind of automated (and other) gaming of the system. If we can build a reputation as being "not profitable" for that kind of activity... then perhaps we CAN have a true game changer here.
by the time stinc gets around to that, and wrangling their chosen witnesses, calibrae will be up and running and I've already designed rules that will shut down this nonsense before it even gets started. I've been flagged to hell over calling out the early stake miners and how badly they distort the platform, to the point that I am getting the point:
Go fork yourself!
Seriously. Stinc doesn't care. They will just build their behemoth RPC update and upgrade their servers and app developers will be left without the ability to run their sites anymore, unless they depend on steemit.
It's quickly turning into myspace, this place.
