RE: Perhaps anarchy already exists and "THE COMMUNITY" is merely the highest manifestation of organized crime.
The forks suggested are an entirely new chain.
A new token which is airdropped. People don't
seem to have faith in his governance. If he creates
a divide that forces a split, then his ninjamine coin
will not be airdropped on the new chain. He'd still
have all of his Steem to sell, if it has value after he
breaks all the things and stuff by leading people
to a place where they don't wish to follow. What
he wouldn't have is whatever the new token is.
It's not ideal, I'd like for there to be only one
chain in the end, and for him to keep all of his
stake with the option to sell it. But his desire
to control the future of the blockchain might
end up being the tokens undoing and the
creation of a new community and token.
That certainly "sounds good".
However, it does absolutely nothing to fix the REAL PROBLEM.
They're still targeting specific accounts (airdrop some accounts and not other accounts).
And by neglecting to even acknowledge the REAL PROBLEM (de facto centralization by anyone with sufficient stake or by anyone powerful enough or charismatic enough to collude with major exchanges), they seem doomed to FASCISM.
Which is fine. We casually accept dictatorial control from our governments and our corporate jobs and our parents. Why would anyone expect the steem blockchain to be any different.
I just wish they'd stop droning on and on about "decentralization" and "protecting personal property" and "libertarian principles".
What a flipping joke!
Decentralization and dPoS do seem
to conflict with one another. I can
see why you're frustrated by this.
People believe both can exist, but
eventually they can clash. JS doing
with his dPoS breaks decentralization.
Freezing assets breaks dPoS. Maybe
one day someone can build a chain
that works like it says it should.
