Comment on Why quadratic funding is not optimalparent

Comments

"the example confuses by making the group sizes different" But isn't that also realistic, since there a lot more people with little income and "small" problems than ultra-wealthy potential art patrons?

Today, if I get 1000 people to give $10 to the local library or public sport place, I have $10.000. (1000xsqrt(10))² are $10.000.000.

For me, an obvious fix for potential exploitation would be to cap the individual contribution to 10k or 100k. However, as I said I know nothing about qf and this has prob. already been discussed to death.
