RE: Where is the Trust in Proof of Brain mining?
And the problem with non-proof of brain mining, it cost people VP to counter them.
But of course, you will find some stout users of that term saying that their business idea is pure "proof of brain". It's more like counterfeiting.
I have posted before that each "content" users create will eventually just be a mining spike to be voted on, and I don't think I will be wrong if this keeps up.
What trust is there in Proof of Brain when many of the sacred top 20 witnesses have self motivations to see such counterfeiting continue
You should have been at the "debate" today between @sircork and @timcliff. The gist of it comes down to the ideas that have been tossed around are not "important enough for the limited dev resources" by the Top 20.
No idea what's actually important, but hey, that's top secret. So, no changes to Witness voting, no nothing. Just pray and hope SMTs will actually be released.
Agreed, @enforcer48. Although the downvote flag is a great idea for questionsble content it is not the answer to fight against counterfeit steem. It should be a given that all steem is created by Proof of Brain and then the fellow brains can figure out its approproateness or not.
Some form of CAPCHA is required embedded ftom the blockchain, using things like the checksum of the post and the block. Leaving the details to the devs, yet if etherium can handle smart contracts a CAPCHA does not seem like a lot to ask.
