I think that there were a lot of people who didnt understand what was happening with the flags, and that caused some bad feelings that were probably  avoidable.  Also, using the term 'expirement' was questionable PR, imo.  It implies that the people getting downvoted are lab rats.

At the very least, i would have liked to have seem more people on board ad-initio so many downvotes would not have been neccessary.  But with automated voting, that may not have been feasible.

Also, if youre a guy that maybe gets lucky once a month and gets a whale vote, and today was the  once a month, it kind of sucks to be  you right now, which is pretty negative.  Im not saying its a good enough reason not to do it... just that omelettes require broken eggs.

>Price is up 25% as a result

I think youre assuming a causation there that really hasnt been established.  IIUC, it was a pretty bull day overall for alts

If all whales would have participated in this experiment smooth and co wouldn't have to downvote anything,  unfortunately there will always be a few whales that won't go along with the plan so Im not sure how else this experiment would have been possible..

>I think youre assuming a causation there that really hasnt been established. IIUC, it was a pretty bull day overall for alts

It's been bull day for weeks for alts and steem was always the only one in the red, why is it different today?   Also the price hasn't gone up for a very long time so why is it up today? I don't think its a coincidence.  These blockchains have value because they empower people, the more they do the more value they have.
