Unfortunately, the rewards will only attract malicious actors that intent to play the system for their own benefits. Reward should be hidden, not used as a way to market SN.

Tell me which platform you know, including famous ones, YT, OF, SS and others that are flooding content creators with fiat, that is marketing using a "join us, we will pay for your content".

I'm glad the reward board was removed, hopefully the first step toward better ethics around here. All these rewards ad contests are simply anti-ethical, anti-moral... they will ruin SN in the long term, making it only a betting platform for scammers.
