RE: Title Edit: Is The Steem Blockchain Decentralized?

in #steemit6 years ago

Fully decentralized? Of course it isn't, never was. Witnesses...
Partly? Yes maybe or rather probably.

I actually don't get why this berniesanders guy gets so much attention.
What is in that post you linked? claims, claims and claims and no factual evidence he links too.
And the few times I looked at his posts this was my usual impression of his posts...

Sort:  

You can check the transactions and see that the @pumpkin account has the deciding role/weight in selecting the top 20 witnesses, if I am not mistaken. These witnesses determine policy that the witness outside the top 20 must follow.

I’ll look into it some more and get you some sources.

That's not your job Graham. I could try to look it up myself.
I get that it's possible and it may be true but it would have been berniesanders job to provide a link to the evidence or at least a screenshot (and not let the others search what may or may not be true). Otherwise he is just lazily badmouthing and complaining in the air - like a true Bernie Sanders.
I've grown accustomed to James Corbett standards.

Thanks for the reply and offer.

I am not a friend of Bernie. He’s done some nasty things. But also often tells the truth.
