RE: Can Steemit Survive Burning $65 Million USD in Author and Curator Rewards Every Year?

in #steemit6 years ago

So Steemit is a cross-platform client for the IPFS protocol similar to what qBittorrent is to the BitTorrent protocol?

It looks like Steemit already has canonical tags for posts. I've only just learned of them 44 minutes ago so I could be wrong but in essence isn't Po.et just a canonical tag put on a blockchain?

From what I'm able to tell, yes, especially the sites that provide uploads for big content like videos (dtube).

Yes and no, po.et also allows for licencing per post to allow for reuse, otherwise the default on Steemit is that all content is copyrighted by their respective authors with distribution rights reserved unless stated otherwise explicitly on the posts in question or on their profile.

Very interesting. Thanks for hanging with me though all the questions! :)

No problem, I'm accustomed to dealing with far, far worse. You know the type. Explain the same thing 10 times "Ohhh finally get it" then 2 minutes later ask the same question xD
