Delegating more power to those who stake the most is not key to getting more staked by those who are staking for the first time. That feeds the richest accounts that continually stake much of their earnings because they understand the importance of staking already. The reward for staking is more   voting power and increased scarcity because the underlying token is less accessible for purchase... it locks it up to make it illiquid. I stake so that I get greater rewards from curation when it comes to pob. I stake Hive so I can lend it out and earn passive income. I paid fiat money for pob and Hive to stake them. It increases my spot within the communities because the more you stake and the more your vote is worth, the more people pay attention when you post after voting their content up... it's an unspoken quid pro quo. I don't do vote for vote, but I do know that when my vote was worth nothing it was most important for me to comment on people's posts so I could be seen. I have enough power that I can just vote up someone's content and they may come see my posts simply out of curiosity. Staking has many benefits... but I do not like your suggestion. I do like your looking for ideas to encourage staking and I do like that you're trying to educate others on staking. Keep learning. Keep spreading the word. Keep contributing, and keep staking!

This post may be useful to see the importance of staking at the moment. Some don't get that they are losing out cashing out now. I don't know what the future holds but the past has told me to hold ans stake and even buy when the price drops.

I think the reward for the most staking is POB Power and is already given. High stakers are already rewarded... Small stakers and new stakers are not rewarded much. @samsmith1971 gave rewards to new stakers. I thought that was heart moving.

You have to engage the community if you want more and more people to curate your work.  It takes time.  Sometimes, a long time.  It's a grind so-to-speak.  You need to keep putting yourself out there.  I only started making returns recently this year.  I must have put out 60+ articles before I started seeing something worthwhile.  

I'm not even selling my POB yet.  Aside from staking most of it, I've just been using my earnings to support a contest.  The rest I still stake.  I'll probably continue doing so for the next couple of years.
