And it is a burden, it's also time-consuming and does leave a bitter taste in the mouth at times.
This is why everyone needs to participate, so that the burden is not that great and not that bitter. It can be a hard thing to recognize but, not everyone is going to act well.
The 'good' whales and wider community have done a shit job with Steem, here is our 2nd chance.
THe beauty with the tribes ( and perhaps my next post) is how many new whales there are now. Whales that have bought in to be there.
That's an important point. I've bought my stake, not been handed it just for being there at the right time.
I'll be damned if some scammer is going to dilute it!
And hopefully, the people who are tokenized whales now are those who understand what happened when the whales were the scammers :)
The tribe will be valued based on their understanding :)
Seems that is why Steem is lagging, most people have no idea what it is capable of :D
