RE: How Long Should The Curation Window On Hive Be?

in dPoll3 years ago

I think the curation curve should be 100% flat. The problem we currently have is that people vote authors that are guaranteed to get more votes to maximize their curation rewards. This can only be fixed by making it completely flat.

Sort:  

I have tried to keep my opinion on this on the sideline to try and get as organic response as possible from the community. I was going to run a few pools, to get a feel where everyone is at. I do like the curve to be 100% flat, I am not sold on the competitive curation aspect, I like a more chill and curate style, which I believe could lead to more realistic payouts. IE a post can earn 400$ if it deserves it, as people won't be penalized for voting late. The same is true, popular creators won't always get big payouts because no one benefits voting on "popular" authors.

The competitive curve was added to incentivize finding of the best content, but what it actually did IMO, was to incentivize curation sniping or voting on posts with as few votes as possible. And I think a prolonged 24h window is just going to incentivize people to vote on popular posts, otherwise, you're losing money. And for accounts like appreciator, they have to do it or freedom is choosing another account who gives him/them better APR.

100%

But some people can't shake off the idea that it is possible to choose the right incentive model to get a perfect reward distribution based on the true value of posts.

The truth is, the value of posts is completely subjective, and it is not guaranteed that anyone will ever agree with the ranking of most voted posts at any moment. The only concern should be fairness and simplicity. Not changing the incentive 100 times.

Totally agree. Another benefit of this change would be that the whole concept of curation would be much easier to explain to newbies (or anyone). Right now, it looks very complicated.

completely agree, best no window (like @leofinance did) or 24h.

I agree but let's go with 24 hours since more won't pass apparently

What passes and what doesn't decides the community.
