Welcome to Steemit, we got what you need!!

I saw that the concerns of the minnows got a lot of attention over the last few weeks.

Not so much this past week, but certainly a lot in the past month.

I also notice that I haven't seen the concerns that were put out for consensus making included in the github pronouncement.

Nobody talking about reward curves this week.

Have the minnow concerns been taken off the front burner?

Nobody mentioning in their HF17 reviews how the new curve(s) will look?

Nobody singing the joys of the new found relevance for the largest majority of us.

Makes me wonder what is going on,....


I'm pretty sure that the consensus was that we want change.


Now, I get that the system is what it is.


1 payout window simplifies the blockchain, ok.

Past blocks are not designed to be changed for one minnow vote.

It doesn't make sense to change a block Xyears old to account for a .0001usd vote.

I get that, though I prefer what we have, 1 and 30 day windows.

I guess I won't complain too loud about the 7 day window, once the initial 7 days are up I'm gonna get a payout each day, more or less.

I do like being able to loan sp to start accounts for my friends, but I doubt that my convienence is the rationale behind it as nobody has made a tutorial, that  I have seen, on how to create accounts for your friends.

An underappreciated field of endeavor, if you were to ask me.

https://anon.steem.network/ works just fine, took my btc and spit out an account in less than 2 minutes.

Tyvm.


So, let's get the conversation going again so that the developers will realize that we need to see a reason to hang out.

As it is now, the small fry see that they are irrelevant, and the top doesn't care, so they leave.


Ya'll can make a caveat that this is all experimental, that you reserve the option to change the curves back when we onboard enough people that the pendulum needs to swing back to favoring those that buy in rather than work their way in.

Hopefully that day won't be far away.

As it is we are just treading water since the big feeding frenzy of last fall.

If a rabbit isn't pulled out of our hat soon the naked shorters are going to continue to cripple us, perhaps permanently.

We don't want to have to overcome having been clowned by the trolls in the minds of the folks.

$17m usd is a rounding error to some folks, and those folks could crush us if they took the notion.

We need a reason for the price to rise, spreading whale dna farther is only going to be popular with those that get splashed by the eruption, everybody else get their feelers bent, perhaps permanantly.


Taking actions that raise the price will force the naked folks to buy more Steem to stop their hemorrhaging of Steem to keep their margins from being called.

This drives the price up even more in a viscous loop, and maybe we can push them dash folks hard enough that they decide to find their own rabbits, or be left in our wake.



Thanks for your time and attention to read my two cents,...

Have a perfectly peaceful day.

The word on the street is that the whales are banding together to do an experiment to see what happens if no whales upvote, and the voting is just left to the minnows/dolphins.

It's not the word on the street, its the word on THE BLOCK.The Block.gif

I think @TimCliff may be old school,...

Ah, so that is why I never get your votes anymore LOL. Have a good week dude.

Yep, I cleared it because my vote power wouldn't come back.
I've added you back!!

Dude, we think the same on a few things, do me a favour, read my post from today and the sentiment in it --- and then the comments section on the nonsense going on here.

I would actually appreciate it. Week long boycott on here is on my mind.....
