RE: Do 'inactive' account votes for witnesses affect the witness ranks?

in #witness6 years ago (edited)

Hi Jack

Well as you can see from the above, a decaying vote (losing its MVEST total week by week) would have little effect on the rankings. Going from 365 - 465 without the decay doesn't change things much, and so for me, decaying by a % each week is not worth looking into at present.

Cheers!

Sort:  
  • the fact that a vote losing it's MVEST worth of a vote is TOTALLY UNFAIR towards the investor who is voting for people who they believe shall represent their best interests on the total investment.

I dare say that a "decaying vote" is not only a pain in the rear in comparison to a "fixed term vote, from date of voting" as far as coding goes, but also a blunder of an idea which definitely is NOT looking after the investors best interests in any way.

Due to the possible complexity of coding, lack of real change to the rankings, and the idea that a vote is a vote until it is not a vote, I would side with you on this :)
