Greetings @tarazkp

Firstly I want to commend you for the great observation as regards to the UI/UX on Peakd. I also observed similar changes too but I thought it was just a normal thing due to developmental changes.

However, while the downvotes from some accounts are hidden from view, this doesn't stop the downvote from happening at the blockchain level and if these "x" accounts had HIVE POWER behind them, they would still be removing value.

I think some users do make use of Hive.blog whenever they intend to downvote spammed/plagiarised content. Also, hive.blog still shows the users responsible for your downvote unlike the new system Peakd adopted.

The development of the blockchain capabilities to attract, house and enable varied
business models to quickly build, scale and be successful on the second layer is of paramount importance, because when that lightning strike of shifting consumer sentiment happens, the blockchain has to be aligned and ready to take that energy and turn it into value.

I strongly agree with your point here! The blockchain itself must be able to adopt new technological changes and development. There's definitely still more to come in future and this is why we must ensure blockchain elasticity to enable changes or adjustments as time goes on.

Thanks for sharing this great post with love from @hardaeborla and I hope you have a great day ahead 💞❤️💞
