RE: Open letter to Steem stakeholders: What adds value to Steem?

in #steemvalue6 years ago

What types of contributions do you consider adding value?

  • First of all, creative work, because it is a newly generated piece of information that has value.I also consider scientific work valuable, because the scientific method ensures the at the time most accurate work is being published, or the work will be replaced by an even more accurate one. Furthermore, I think content that explains is valuable because people won't get smarter without learning new things and explanations are especially helpful at learning. And I hope all of us agree that smart people are essential for a developed community.

What types of things will you upvote/reward?

  • I will upvote content that, in my opinion adds value as specified above. Additionally I will upvote content that I spontaneously decide to vote for, e.g. funny content.
    Right now I am following the @de-stem curation trail, since I want to support the German scientific community.

What types of things will you downvote?

  • I will downvote (or submit to @steemcleaners) content that harms the platform, so content that is the opposite of point №1. Especially illegal content is not nor will be tolerated by me.
    I will not downvote content that is just contrary to my opinion, rather will I leave a comment debating the topic.

What types of projects will you consider delegating SP to?

  • I certainly have not enough SP to start delegating right now. But as I (hopefully) will get more SP and have paid back my starting degation from @steem, I will consider delegating to project that add value and are trustworthy. I will especially consider charity and scientific projects as I think this kinds of projects are the most beneficial for the world.

I find it amazing how I can shift real value to the right projects without ever having invested into STEEM. Because I spent no money on STEEM I feel the responsibility to distribute my VP as good as I can to benefit the community.
