HF-21: The SPS - a short animation

Ah, I love the smell of a good hardfork, don't you?

Unless you have been under a Steemit rock you will know that there is a hardfork a coming.

It's a bundle of changes and I can say I am relatively in favour of them all.

There is one aspect I disagreed with though, that was the source of the SPS funding.

It inspired this short animation.

All fun of course, it's not really going to kill us... Is it??

Sort:  

Steemit was under a rock for me. Now I’ve found it! I am aware of the hard fork though. I am unsure as to whether it will be a positive or a negative thing in the long run, as I don’t have a history of using steem to compare it to. I have faith that the people implementing the changes for everyone, are able to make these decisions due to working with the public and using their intellect to navigate what might best benefit the community. I find it hard to believe that anyone at all, rich or poor, can just not care about an investment.

Yes. One can but hope the hardfork delivers all the benefits we have been led to believe it might!

Faith is good, but always tempered with a gnarly eye :0)

Ha ha, well it was worth the wait Mr boom 😉

Now for some completely made up stats...

10% of authors are 10% happy with having 10% of their rewards taken to fund a bunch of devs. 90% are wondering if they're going to jump on a magic unicorn to a Narnia of mystical whale manual curation rewards post HF21.

"50/50 will save us all"

... the call of religious fever echoes across the blockchain.

90% of witnesses are laughing their asses off, while 10% of them are saying

"hey guys... maybe we shouldn't arse rape the people who create the value in our little ecosystem"

= steem 100% fckd by cock bot value grabbing gobshites 😂

I'm not sure what % of consensus witnesses run bidbots... but that's a different convo.

Great animation @meesterboom

That is a shortened convo, I suspect the answer to that last is a lot especially if you factor in the ones that don't actively run one probably delegate out their SP to one!!!

I think we are in quite broad agreement on all of the above, hehe!!

Haha, great satire! Don't suppose you could send me a DM of the witnesses who run bid bots (if you know who they are)? May change my votes around in that case

Oh, totally worth a share! Now how about my 10% ??

!tip

Boom, unlike the SPS I gave you one!! Hehe

YES! Consensus has been reached and that 10% will generously go to the trusty witnesses so they can finally get paid what they are worth for securing this blockchain and we can finally take our rightful place at #378 on CoinMarketCap!

378!?? As high as that?? ;0)

That is the March 2020 target but it will be Golos status by 2021. 😯

Good old golos, first of the clones!!

I almost learned Russian for that one... almost

Haha, that might be going too far! :0D

hahahah - I feel like a time traveller as this is pretty much how I envisage it happening.

"You'll have an eye out if you aren't careful"

Hehe, an eye... An arm.. who knows what!!! :0D

I just keep watching it over and over....

Haha, so do I and I have seen it like a hundred times

I just keep watching it over and over....

Enjoy it while you've got your eyes.

I'm always late to the party. I need to shape up.

I've been thinking about that 10%. I wonder how much percentage of the reward pool went to bots each time someone wanted to promote their latest greatest biggest idea? Think about that. See where I'm going with it?

I do see!!

The last that I read diverge was that an estimated third of the reward pool went to bidbot boosted posts. I am sure the person said that was a conservative estimate. It seemed genuine because they attempted to correlate it with SP delegated to bots.

Tis a lot!

Yeah, so rather than 10% of the reward pool going to bidbots any time someone has a legit plan they want everyone to know about, now they have 10% allocated. So the way I'm seeing it, we're not losing a full 10%... confusing but I'm just trying to see the whole picture, past present future stuff, combined leeched value from the reward pool under current practices yadda yadda yadda. Basically now, if dipshit Jerry has another bright idea, we can downvote his dumbassery if it hits the trending page and if it hits the SPS, we can just laugh at him and not vote for it.

I know what you mean and I really hope that projects get funded through the SPS and don't double dip with supporting posts :0D

I can't wait for the free flags though. That will be a boon!

Oh fuck we all know they're just going to try to milk every last penny they can.

Oh yes, it will be interesting to watch!

Brilliant!

A man of many talents I see - words or moving images, no problem!

100 and 10% Resteemable :D

Woot woot, a resteem means something done right!! Glad you liked it mucker!

I do enjoy the animations, and the stories as well of course!

Lol, the animations are the best out the two! Shame they are so sparse! I must try harder!

Ah, I've missed your Meesterbots and their impending doom. Now I have something to do the rest of the day. Watching Number 2 get his heart ripped out, like in the classic "It Came Out From Under The Bed ".
Thanks for the entertainment, and reminding me of the joys of HF21. I don't live under the rock, but hang out there more than I should. Cheers to a nice Monday.

Hehe, that is indeed a classic. You can't go wrong with a heart ripping!!;0)

When sitting down hurts after meeting this bot, you know you've been forked hard again.

(Great animation, a lot of work that must have been.)

Hehe, as usual it took far longer than I expected ! But pleased with the way it turned out!

Yup, EPIC, just like I thought it would be!!

Hehe, glad you liked lass!
