Isn’t this account doing everything you claimed you thought was negative a couple months ago? BillionTools buys most votes they get daily, Leo through subscription (as sadly much of hive does) & through delegation from SSG-Community & Eds. They have like 10% of stake free for curation & 90% delegated , a majority used to buy upvotes. This seems far worse issue than KE. It’s turning into Steemit where majority of accounts use stake to delegate to buy daily upvotes and get no or little interaction. Ironically in the Steemit example these staked Steem tokens will crash far more than the rewards added up over years if they just never bothered or sold years ago. I’m not saying Hive is in that boat yet, but seeing many accounts buying 80% plus of daily votes is signaling hive is heading that way. It’s not a small issue and I only use the one account as example because I also notice these same accounts brag about visiting people like you to get big comment upvotes. I know you have only good intention, but to very odd flip seeing you go from DVing to supporting these kind of accounts. You will notice half the accounts or a third at least all get a daily vote from Leo/SSG-Community & lesser extent Ed’s. Which adds up to 85% of total rewards that account gets daily. Seems like a bad signal and one heading towards Steemit behavior.
Ps I’m not trying to pick on one account. This issue is far and wide a large group here on Hive.
