RE: EOS.IO Development Update
The Streisand Effect here is intentional.
The vote and comment was strictly to make a point and draw out Daniel's long-running, subtextual, subversive intent to compete with Steem, to give the public alignment with his private discourse, which has long been filled with express intent to compete. And of course I will retract the vote.
Dan left Steem expressly to create a competitor to Steem and is advertising it with a supposed “inside track” to the future here on our platform while acting like he is no competitor. And whether he leaves the platform for good today or 6 months from now to join his Steem-competitor depends on if we choose to see through his intentions and care. It’s possible I am making the mistake of caring. It’s hard to really say until these platforms have existed for a while 10 months from now. I would prefer to ship our tokenization platform, Smart Media Tokens (SMTs), which outcompetes any version eos can string together, and get moving without Dan clouding the marketplace. He asked me for the same months ago. This is reasonable and all business. I vastly prefer Steem and SMTs.

Thank you for clarifying this @ned, those who care for steemit and it's future should never stop fighting to keep the platform alive, sadly, you might have reached the opposite here though, as negative attention is also attention, and sometimes even the best advertisement
So your thinking was Dans building a competitor and everybody should know about it, so lets push him into a corner and give him the perfect opportunity to announce a competitor by showing just how corrupt our own system is.
The only thing diluting the marketplace is your ego and your tendancy to create forty million new names for a coin we only need one name for, kind of like dollars or euros or bitcoin, there is no DOLLAR, DOLLAR BACKED DOLLAR SMT DOLLAR,SP DOLLAR, VEST DOLLAR blah, can you confuse the fuck out of aunt bertha user anymore at all please?
You can use ONE coin ALL kinds of ways, you know they've been doing it since sea shells and salt were money? Imagine that!
I'm betting on Dan, you seem pretty clueless and noobish.
do you even understand the vision of @ned's smt? you should read the smt whitepaper at https://SMT.steem.io if you had i doubt you would say this. Smt is a project that is going to solve a lot of problems by helping people monetize their online content with the help of the steem blockhchain without having to care so much about the underlying tech
LOL, yes, I do understand how it works, and as a top witness who contributes to managing the chain and setting the price feed, I know exactly what I'm talking about. Thanks.
Thank you for letting us know what's behind of this from your point of view. Especially for a newbie like me your acting was hard to understand. But please: really don't forget retracting this vote! :-)
This is the CEO of Steemit?
fuck.
Thank you. You too.
Hi @ned, I think you were right doing this... I think Steem will cut a good chunk of business from all Smart Contract Platforms. Be it Ethereum or EOS!
I cannot wait for the release of SMTs. Is there any concrete date for the release of SMTs?

Hi @ned, I think you were right doing this... I felt the "Inside Track" for some time as well... and it did not feel good... I think @dan is a genius, but he also said that he would not use Steem anymore when he left... It feels a bit like he tries to hijack the community... I guess anyday he will dump his 700.000 Steem.. he keeps powering down but does not sell it bit by bit... perhaps he will dump it all at once some day... like he did with bitshares if I remember correctly...
