RE: Is it good to reward for witness vote ?
You are showing that you have little understanding of who the witnesses are and what they do. If you did, you would know they already give back in many ways. If a witness needs to give you a reward to vote for them, you need to be looking at what they are doing that benefits the community more than themself.
I suggest you attend the witness chat on the Steemit Ramble Discord this morning (Saturday Apr. 21 at 11am) to learn more about witnesses.
Here is the link to a post about the chat:
I know there are so many witnesses doing so many good things for the community. I appreciate all that. Giving rewards is also good for the community. Especially for minnows. Or is it bad ? Bad for whom ? Community or witnesses ?
Buying votes is wrong in any democracy I've ever known. Do you really need to ask that question?
Witness voting is not for selecting any political leader. Its for selecting someone to run some servers to secure the blockchain and get huge rewards for that. They are making huge profits. So they may need to do so many things to secure that position including buying votes. It's more business than any service. So I am sure that some day, all of the witnesses will have to buy votes
actually they don't make huge profits.. the only ones who make any profit are the top 20 and most of those put back into the community. You concept of buying votes is distasteful and speaks to who you are
