RE: Math of Steem: Can I characterize the premium value I place on my outgoing vote?
if i understood correctly, you are talking about the tension between cynicism and earnestness, assuming that the two types of vote strategy can be said to mean these things... i think it's a profound question. i think the two are always in irreconcileable compromise
I don't think so? I don't know, that's kind of at left angles with the way I think about it and I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it. It feels perfectly, thoroughly earnest to me to trade $1 for $1.50.
I might characterize it as the tension between optimism and practicality. Optimism must on some level be practical, and practicality without optimism is misery.
