Thanks for sharing your point of view. I want to listen to the Korean community. But I don't think the first two @proxy.token requests are good for the future of Steem.

What many Steemians from East and West seem to forget when they propose improvements is that it's a miracle that Steem works at all. Rewarding users for posting would degenerate into an orgy of spam, plagiarism and bribery, unless there are strict countermeasures in place. I've been downvoted by a witness for using a tag, I was shocked, but we worked out a compromise and I support him now. Maybe there could be a more organized way to appeal downvotes. But downvotes are essential to discourage abuse.

Why would we give voting power to people who could cash out within a week or a month? The 13-week lockup period should have prevented a financial attack from exchanges, but we were wrong to expect them to be rational. I might have considered supporting a change to 4 weeks if it wasn't going to help parties who supported a hostile takeover.

Thank you for your input. I think it is difficult to find agreements on how downvoting and steem powerdown should work, but I hope we can find a way to compromise.
