RE: Why There Is No Such Thing As "Draining The Reward Pool"

in #steemit8 years ago

That is related to the second dimension of this thought train, the philosophical one, which I will try to address in an article later today or tomorrow.

From an economical point of view, though, the value of the rewards pool is not fixed, and it cannot be "drained". It's variable and we have some control over it.

Sort:  

I generally call "draining" a post that has no value whatsoever for anyone but it' s upvoted undiscriminately by the same whale. That is draining because this person is not looking at good post to upvote but votes "his guy". His guy takes the money and runs. If you think: well, that's legal right? It is, but it hurts us all.

But, if you allow me, I could write a post about the philosophical "draining" as well, from a different perspective :D

Of course I allow you :) You don't even need me to allow you anything, it's a free world. I'd be curious to see your perspective.

As for my perspective, it stems from one simple understanding: life is not fair, because fair is entirely subjective, and different from person to person. Will elaborate later on in my post.

Looking forward to that post!!! :) love that the comments (once again my favorite interaction!!!) brought about further discussion :)

I can't wait to read BOTH of your posts about it!!!! Following you to make sure I don't miss it :)
