RE: Steem Co-Founder Dan Larimer On Why He Left Steem & His New Potential Ethereum Killer Cryptocurrency EOS

in #steem7 years ago

Honest question - Is anyone else concerned that Dan did not continue his work with Bitshares and instead went on to make another platform that will effectively be competing against it? That would be like Vitalik Buterin doing $1 billion ICO for a hot new cryptocurrency. Things start looking a little bit Ponzi-schemeish when developers do not stick with cryptocurrency projects they started and move on to do another one.

I may be wrong and there is a good reason for Dan doing this an not even using the Bitshares platform to sell it. Anyone else have a different perspective?

Sort:  

If the new platform cannibalises the old one, then Dan is effectively fulfilling his promise of fighting for Life, Liberty and property. It shows that he wants to improve systems even if it means that old and popular systems fail because of it. That being said I doubt it's his explicit intention to do so.

I'm glad he still fixes bugs for Bitshares. I would't call it a Ponzi but we have to admit that the team there is doing a great job PRwise.
