Do you prefer Steemit's stake to stay neutral?
Steemit Inc. delegates 18.5m SP to some dApps and communities. Considering the delegatees spend their votes daily, this is a huge ninja-mined stake influencing the reward pool.
Let's do some quick math and calculate what 18.5m means:
Total vesting shares | Steemit's delegated vesting shares |
---|---|
412466507537 | 37145498659 |
It turns out 9% of the reward pool influence is delegated by @misterdelegation to other accounts.
As a stakeholder, your influence in the reward pool is getting a direct hit. If this ninja-mined stake would stay neutral, you would be getting more influence in the STEEM network and your vote would be more valuable.
On the other hand, your vote's worth is directly related to the market price and this price may get positive effects from the development of STEEM dApps and communities.
I am not implying that it's good or bad. I personally have mixed feelings about this practice and am curious as to what kind of ecosystem we see if these delegations were gone.
The question is:
Do you prefer Steemit's stake to stay neutral?

Money should work. Steemit stake is part of the game which you accepted while buying STEEMs.

That's not true. A lot of dapps started with delegations before they grew and became a central and important part of the Steem blockchain.

The question is awfully asked, and is oriented. You are clearly wanting a Yes as an answer.
This steemit's stake will never be neutral. Even if they didn't delegate it, and didn't vote for it, and kept it just idle, it wouldn't be neutral. As long as these coins are part of the supply, they will never be neutral, as the threat of SteemIt starting to use it would still be there.
The question should be
Should SteemIt Inc burn all their tokens?
, then watch people change their minds.Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yes.
But what reasons in particular can we think for StInc's stake to remain neutral vs any other miner account. Is it just a question of the magnitude of influence or is there more to it?
I would refer to the instances in which the stake has been abused to the detriment of the community for starters. dMania is one example that comes to mind.
I, personally, would be in favor of a tech solution for the the nullification of all premined stake. Think the early miners have had enough time to enjoy the advantage and its high time the distribution problem be addressed.
I believe could accelerate adoption especially to investors that have avoided Steem because of the centralization (perceived or actual) associated with a premine.

Let me guess that most people will vote YES because that supports their interests. I am no different. Steemit's delegation being neutral is essential for competition among DApp developers. Without that, we won't see proper improvement among DApps.

It's part of the Free Market. A lot of these dapps provide great value to the Steem blockchain, keep people on it, coming back and contributing, let alone all the programmers behind that putting all that time and effort to improve such dapps so that they can provide value for all of us.

Yes, it was ninja-mined and it should be used only for creating accounts. And now it is not even used for this...

No. That's money that should be put to work. There are tons of good initiatives that could do with funding. I don't mean any dreamer with an idea - but solid teams that have running code and a userbase can use support to scale. That's good for the blockchain overall.
If I voted yes because of the ninja mine then the only moral action would be that the ninja mine is burnt via transfer to null.

Let the users decide. Good to encourage DApps but wouldn't others do that if they stayed neutral? I think so. Its a good community

Thank you for brining this issue to our attention... I think it is way too much steem to be put in few hands. I guess there are some cases where the stake is used wisely and in some others maybe not so much.
I would particularly find it wrong if people who get does delegations are using it to vote for witnesses?, specially if those witnesses are their own.

In frankly speaking; i dont have a pure idea of that. However, when i read that all these delegations are pre-mined, it makes me feel iike exposing injustice. Isn't that like printing unbacked money?

I think Dapps should be sustainable on their own and shouldn't be depending on Steemit Inc's SP delegation. If Steemit inc's SP will be neutralized and the Users with lower level of SPs will have more influence to the network then thay would be a good thing (IMHO).
Let's take Steem monsters for example, it is one of the most successful project that didn't even get a direct support from Steemit Inc.
Dapps should be relevant enough to get the interest or attention of the masses and not because of the huge SP delegation that is being vested to them by Steemit Inc.

Would vote No. It’s like seed capital to fledgling businesses which could be very advantageous to the Apps/ projects becoming self sufficient.

Since they already have a large stake they better support good projects that would help the ecosystem. Personally I'd prefer if they delegate more to smaller projects like dpoll.

I think Steemit Inc delegation has helped the number and quality of apps grow on Steem. Without delegated Steem Power many of them would struggle to survive. The Steem Power enables the app to upvote users and attract more people to the app and to Steem. Eventually, we should see a positive affect on the price of Steem as more people use Steem and its apps as well as want to invest.

If they have 9% of the reward pool influence, be neutral means take out all delegations, witch will be very bad..

No, their stake shouldn't stay neutral. The part that was ninjamined should remain neutral(think its the one in @steem and @steemit should not be used. But if they acquire more by either buying it or whatever, they should be able to use it as they choose.
