RE: From Writer to Whale Groupie? - Steemit from a content creator perspective 1
The curation rewards have gotten really small. People are selling their soul for $0.001 = 1/10 of a cent. I've started upvoting anything well-written. For example, a good rant will not get whale votes... but people relate to a good rant and want to talk about their problems.
Do you think the special role of the first vote needs to be reconsidered, too?
It seems to me that it does not make sense to reward only the first vote since it is grabbed by either the author or a bot anyway. Rather, rewards should decrease from the first vote onwards on some sort of sliding scale by passage of time or number of votes.
