RE: Behind Steemit #9 - Whales and Upvote power, is this what we want? (send by an user)
I am facinated by the motivation. What does a person gain from doing this? Are they getting votes which translates into more money aftere all is cashed out or what? It seems like a very tedious way to bring in a few bucks and it will only hurt the overall integrity of the concept . As it stands I trust the steemit communtity for their upvotes and comments etc. but that will lose value if these whales are using their weight to scrape more of the thing they already have enough of. What a cheapskate way to make money! Essentiallly they are stealing from anyone who upvotes that isnt themself. Lame moves! Thanks for exposing this scammy behavior.
