I agree that it's a possibility this could get worse, but I think it's unlikely.
The whales who truly can make a difference have millions of dollars in their wallets often, I don't think they'd want to risk losing that for a quick profit here and there.
Cause if Steem "fails" all our investments are worth nothing I guess lol
Not entirely true, as whales can cash out at any time. What stops them from looking to maximise their profits in a short time by acting as I described and then doing so?
What do you mean, I thought steem power is locked for 2 years?
