I know what you mean - that is exactly what I've been thinking about Steemit too - but it's safe to say nobody (including me) is discussing this too publicly.
I'm a big Steemit fan but there is some suspicious shit going on with accounts I dare not name...
No kidding, the fear-factor on this site is really fucked-up. I wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of one of these whales. I've heard a few rumblings from a few concerned steemians. Suppose it is bound to happen(Not saying it will succeed) and I will never forget when Rupert Murdoch ruined ITV-Digital, when it was released. He paid a guy to reverse engineer the card/chip and then he made a fuck-load of copies and sold them on the black market. No more ITV-Digital and no more competition for sky-tv. The big dogs, if not involved already, are not gonna let this site steal everything they have built up. My guess is a buy-out or web-site fraud/crash. Hope we are just being too suspicious as this site is amazing.
Following you now - I don't usually follow resteemers but you just nailed it with that comment!
Thanks bud. Not sure if you agreeing with that is a good thing, lol. Fingers crossed and make hay while the sun shines... Speak soon bud.
