I claimed a bunch of Moxie token over the past few days – this appears to have accumulated organically as a result of my casts and interactions. I cannot tell what the mechanism is by which this occurs but it seems to be that when certain people respond to you it generates a lot of Moxie, whereas others do not. So you may have a trending and popular post but if the more powerful accounts don't engage with it there is not much Moxie generated.

I think it would be more democratic and come closer to achieving organic economic viability if the mechanism were more based on engagement agnostically rather than favoring certain accounts. At least the favoritism should not be so wildly disproportionate and can allow for posts enjoyed by lowbies to generate rewards rather than building around a few power users.

I agree, but how do you do this without enabling spam? One way might be to create a tiered system of levels that castors might be able to achieve based on certain good faith metrics to increase their moxie power, another might just be to readjust the algorithm a little in favour of lower ranked accounts that otherwise have good non spam histories. It's certainly not easy.
