RE: Who wins from selling votes?

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

And worse.... minnows try to earn Steem by upvoting 85 % of our own posts in order to convert to Steem Power to increase our voting power to increase the value of our votes ... only to have every single post down voted by @sadkitten and a host of other bots..... This is depressing. If I Upvote my own posts I get downvotes if I pay for votes I get down voted and waste all my Steem. Minnows can’t win. Ever. We are getting Crushed by whales and bots,

Sort:  

If most of your votes go on your own posts that's bad for steemit. Support others and they may return the favour. I have self voted, but it would be less than 5% of my votes. I want to see honest engagement, not just automation. You've earned something and so have I.

If you vote after 30 minutes on your own posts you are sharing 99% of your Upvote with your followers to reward them with Curation Steem.... if @sadkitten takes this away, he is taking away from those curators.

I don't think many people self vote for the benefit of others. They still get most of the reward

If they haven’t read the White paper or understand how Curation rewards work,
