Thank you for that. Brilliant and transparent replies and I totally agree on your points about bidbots and the fact we need a universal blacklist.
Now let's see how many replies from the top20 we get!
You need cloning mate!

Logic also dictates that you are both Ned and Bernie.
Ergo, Bernie also has wonderful hair.

Sorry, Ned and I have been hiding in our bunker so that we don't have to face the mean internet people and their questions. Can you believe they want transparency? Barbarians I tell you.

Ok, I was reading very seriously until this part. I almost spit my coffee on my laptop :)
@llfarms @berniesanders I always had a feeling you were the same person, but I can't just figure out how the @ned comes in after seeing his livestreams and also seeing LL on the steemfest stream :)

I see stats saying that o only a small percentage of votes come from the boys, but they control a massive amount of the reward pool. We have efforts by groups like @steemflagrewards to deal with those who abuse them, but that's like pissing in the ocean. There's a short-sighted dash for cash going on. The blacklists should help, but it's clear most bots don't use them. Certain accounts that ought to care about their own reputation are selling votes to known and persistent abusers. They should be called out on this, and I've done so.

What are the minimum requirements for a server? So I can start a Witness?
Are there any plans to make witnessing more efficient? I would love to run a little node or smthn on my old Gaming PC.
Because my PC just stands there and is not being used (didnt game for 2 years now) and wants to do some maths..
While I would love to distribute to decentralization, as student I have no money to rent a server..
Besides that, great Interview!

Ideally, a 64Gb ram server with nvme drives and decent cpu.
But you can get by with 32gb ram and decent ssd disk if you don’t mind longer replay times.

Thanks for your answer.
I guess I still have to wait.. until the requirements are less or I earn money..

The focus is reducing full node requirements but witness node memory creep may be addresssed at some point as well. Hopefully.

Yeah I've noticed that too, there seem to be more bidbots popping up every day it seems. The list on Steembottracker is getting bigger and bigger.
Not only that, but most of them aren't even usable. I mean, who wants to use a bid bot that only has a $0.50 vote or less?

Some have like 5 cent votes and charge 10 cent minimum bid.

LOL, just checked some of them and they're actually used by some people. With heavy losses of course.

@themarkymark I thought u said your Ned and Bernie? Which I would believe since you were talking about lower server costs and running 4 full nodes with a team (having hired someone from firefly no less) and then "Ned" lays off staff and reduces costs exactly as you were talking about.
As for Bernie what are the chances that you had 5500 Steem Monster alpha packs for sale and then beanie was giving away a similar amount?
Doesn't matter to me. Even though you flagged me for awhile I am no hater. Although I think you would be better served black listing only better targets ie. human trafficking, terror and hate groups, child porn ect. vs. people who copy paste or milk an air drop.
If your not "ned" any chance you would give us a post on your thoughts as a major active hodl'er on recent events?

Hi :) I don't mind bots but I don't want one myself because I want to be sure my upvotes go to post I like. Sorry if I've misunderstood your question.
I think witness votes should time-out. It could then be up to the witness to post explaining why he/she should continue and we could revote for them if we so wanted. The present system makes it very hard for any new blood to rise up the league table.

If there were no bidbots it would just be high SP users all auto upvoting each other and not reading the stuff they upvoted. Is that better somehow?
All the other new sites that are rewarding coins for content for have learned from steemit mistakes and take steps to limit circle jerk voting. Eventually real competition is going to rise up and just having been first won't save us anymore. If somewhere else does it better, and someone will, why would anyone come here?

You forget that competetors are good.
If Steem get's some competition, especially good one, steem has to continue developing.
Which is good for us ;)
