I may have goten ahead of myself. So after your clarification, I understand your point of view better, thank you.
Obviously I have missed some of your comments, that woud have shed a light on the matter.
I am not saying the entire Steem system is corrupt, but it definitely has problems. SteemDev's are also pretty concerned so, I am not making this up. I guess when the SBD problem is solved things will get a lot better.
However, thanks for the reply. Glad we are on the same page for the most of it.
And I am sorry if I got a bit defensive.
Yes there are problems...without a doubt. One of the biggest problems I see is the lack of communication from the Steemit development team. I believe in their capabilities and feel they will work the issues out, yet their communication is non-existent. I think they should improve on this...it doesnt take much to post an update every so often.
The downvoting situation could use addressing...there are a number of proposals out there that make some sense....hopefully there will be something put in place to allow for people to downvote reward pool rapes and spamming without using up all their VP.
The reason I am so excited about blockchain is I believe it will create abundance for most people. This takes away the need for these corrupt antics. Will there always be a few bad apples? Sadly, yes...it is unavoidable.
Nevertheless, if most of the world has some basic necessities that comes from cryptocurrencies, then we are operating on a much higher place as a species. The existing power structure will not give up the control easily but I think, in the end blockchain will win out.
Decentralization is just too powerful.
Agree ! Thank you ! You are a cool dude, who knows what he is talking about :)
