RE: Hive Power distribution May 2020

in #hive5 years ago

Thank you for highlighting that Hive's top holders are decentralized over 272 accounts versus Steem leaving a single person in charge. I would be interested to see a comparison of Steem's breakdown to this to get the full picture of who is more decentralized via staking.

I'm not saying that Hive is decentralized. I'm saying it's more so than Steem. Please prove this statement wrong.

I'm comparing Hive to Steem because they are the closest networks to compare to. You could also compare Hive to other dPoS chains and I'd be very interested to compare those for distribution.

Comparing to Bitcoin is silly and you know this. Bitcoin is the most decentralized cryptocurrency there is. Of course Steem, or any dPoS system, will not compare to it. The dollar though? It's more centralized than Steem so I'm not sure why that was included.

The guy comparing the dollar to actual distributed networks is calling someone else an idiot...

I wish we could have had an actual debate about stake distribution in dPoS networks. I guess that wouldn't go well with the narrative of this post so I don't blame you for backing down. Hope you have a good day!

People are very emotional. Centralization is allowed by populations of individuals. Individuals are not binary and therefore decentralization is not binary. Most things in this existence are varying shades of gray.

I enjoy reading about the differing viewpoints that everyone has on this post though. I have followed many of you. I hope to learn something from each one and become a dev someday.
