RE: Why the Whale War might be good for Steemit
I think there is a really, really simple way to deal with this. Bring back the four posts per day rule. Before HF19 we had a mechanism on steemit that allowed all users to post four posts per day and receive maximum rewards. At the fifth post, maximum reward payout dropped I think to 75%, sixth 50%, seventh 25% etc. I think this is the best way to mitigate this type of abuse, and would be a really simple solution to this problem.
four post are too many for a whale. i think the number of posts for whales should be less. may be once a week. and there should be a limit to steem power an account. it should not be unlimited
If it's actually purely abuse this is easy to circumvent with extra accounts. Just make 10 bot accounts and post 4 times a day from each of them. A real user trying to build an audience would suffer from splitting across multiple accounts, but an abusive reward harvester wouldn't have a problem with it.
