Not sure I will make the show, but can we reduce the number of witness votes from 30 to say 10 or maybe even less? The chain is really not very decentralized when we have just a couple of the largest stake holders determining all 20 of the top witnesses...

I'm looking forward to it and it's already on my calendar! I'm pretty sure that anything @andrarchy is able to share with us will be of interest.

Thanks Melinda. It will be great to see you there. Let me know if you have any questions you would like me to put to @andrarchy.

Just the usual questions ... Has a date been set for HF21? SMT development and an explanation of why it is not all being developed together with Steem Connect. And is he loving married life? 💕

My question is:
When will the SMTs be released?

The question for the show: Is Steemit Inc considering reducing the number of witness votes an account has to 10, to improve the decentralization of the witnesses and reduce the power of the accounts which currently almost solely decide who becomes top 20 witness?

Yes this needs to be done ASAP.

I don't think they're interested in it, nor are the top witnesses, as far as I can tell. Received pretty much zero discussion about it from them last fall. One responded and basically said, "There may be security concerns." When asked to elaborate...no response.

In my opinion, the current numbers are a serious enough concern to merit serious discussion. Unfortunately, as a Steem witness, I seem to be quite alone on this subject. I'm sure that in another couple of years some other more "popular" voices will mention it and then it will be discussed off-chain somewhere...then the solution offered to the community will be worse than the original code.

Meh...such is Steem.

This message was intended for @andrarchy, not you! @andrarchy, Why u looks so pissed? Learn to smile. Did steemit take my images away again? Fuck you guys, scammers! You look like you are glaring at me, that's just the first thing I noticed about your thumbnail, so I flag that one! Why your name sound so much like anarchy? P.S. you look nice in a videos though, so you mustn't really be all that bad!
