RE: Beginning To Lose Motivation On Steemit...

in #steemit8 years ago

Mind you it is absolutely possible that control on this platform will be or maybe already has been centralized as well which would enable a small number of users who own enough of the stake to decide which posts get promoted to the front page, receive the most money, etc.

In that case it would be up the community to confront and overcome that or walk away. My point is it's up to the community to play along and shape the platform just like in the 'real world'. The difference to other platforms is there exists this price discovery mechanism that has a reputation/experience weighting built in which is great - and also opens the door for consolidating control.

Seems we're all in one very large experiment.
