RE: Hardfork complete but not as planned.

in #steem4 years ago

Nobody likes the current situation and we all hope that these stressful times will be over soon, so that we all can focus on the good things again. With the initial freeze of Mr. Sun's funds they have crossed an important red line.

I still hope that they all will finally find peace and just leave us alone. They copied millions of posts to their 'new' chain but not the related funds of all accounts that created those posts. That is questionable to say the least.

As I said before, they should start a completely new blockchain to be able to succeed in the long term. There are too many hurdles to be successful with a fork of an existing social network blockchain.

Sort:  

They copied millions of posts to their 'new' chain but not the related funds of all accounts that created those posts.

Even if they had copied the current balances it's not clear that would be fair compensation for copying old post content. If user A and user B both had $20 in liquid rewards from some pre-split post, and A traded their $20 for some bitcoin while B held it as SBDs, after the split/copy B would have gotten "paid again" on the new chain but A wouldn't have, even though their posts were equally copied and presumably equally valuable. Starting from scratch would have been the most legal and ethical approach, but they didn't choose that route. I'm still a bit surprised that there haven't been any copyright claims filed, although maybe that is happening quietly and I just haven't heard about it.

so that we all can focus on the good things again.

There's no good things left. Hive/Steem really was a scheme as it was criticised for. If you can't trust that you have control of your own funds the system is broken. Stealing is not OK because someone else was stealing first. Someone stole money in Sumeria 5000 years ago.

There's still some nice people here that is supporting me with fiat money the only money concept that works obviously.

Pretty sick and tired of all of you.

Banking doesn't work. There are millions of unbanked people worldwide. Governments printing boat loads of money is a scam. Banks seizing funds and you having to prove it isn't fraud is a scam.
PayPal is a scam.

If you accept money by medium, YouTube, patreon, udemy or literally any payment processor or website that pays you for any good or service in fiat they can deplatform you in a second. This happens every single day.

Just because fiat is better for you doesn't mean it always will be.

Banks seizing funds and you having to prove it isn't fraud is a scam.

You can't see the irony writing that in this tread?

Maybe we can conclude that money is a scam WHICH INCLUDE CRYPTO. I can buy a bread with fiat, that's all.

Maybe you should learn what license the blockchain and its contents are under, I mean you are a top witness and everything. 😉
