I wonder if having a randomised time after posting, instead of a set 5 (or 30) minutes. In fact, if it was randomly set for each post by the blockchain, but advertised at the bottom of the post, then human curators could decide when it was best for them to upvote, but bots couldn't automatically game the system. That would encourage more human curation over bot curation.

How would the website be able to display a value from the blockchain, without a bot being able to read it too?
Yeah, I thought of that just after I posted. ;). Perhaps it could be in picture form.
But maybe just randomising it between known limits and not advertising it could be enough to disincentive the bots a bit. And maybe not having the author:curator ratio at 1 initially. Maybe 0.8, so the human curators can still get something out of it.
I don't know really. Just chucking ideas around.
I have an idea to chuck out there, the blockchain recognizes the vote, can the vote not be tied into the page view. Human curators I assume go to the page they are voting on or thinking about voting on, so before the blockchain accepts a vote it checks to see if the voter is on the page. If nothing else this will make the page views skyrocket when those 1234 votes need to be on the page for their vote to count.
