RE: Steemit: Business or Pleasure?
I love business. I love capitalism. I love competition where some people make a lot of money and some a little bit of money, and it is a game where not everybody wins, and that drives the competition, the innovation, the adventure, and we can play the game for many reasons and in many ways, for money and/or fun and/or sharing and/or blogging and/or anything and everything and all of that works together maybe like a free market maybe to some extent or in some ways and I love that. I want people to be able to compete in ideas, in making money, in blogging, in having fun, in everything, and let the best ideas rise to the top. Yeah, we may not always like bigger whales, but millions of little Fish Steemians can maybe sometimes outvote bigger Whales on Steemit maybe now or maybe someday. I said million even as there are not even a million people on Steemit yet but I am thinking in the future there will be. And there will be a billion people on Steemit probably before 2025. It is growing. It is not going to stop like Bit Torrent.
I also love any system that respect freedom!
And you are right, minnows can together give bigger support than a single whale, especially if the price of steem increases by a lot, the minnows of today (the majority of us hehe) might end up having a valuable vote in the future.
So let's hope this platform is one of the successful!
Agreed, together, we grow and stuff. Together, we stand tall. And apart, we fall apart. And STEEM is rising.
I thought I already answered to this comment - weird! Anyway!
I'm with you, I'm just wondering/worrying that if some very powerful people wanna change the 'rules' and steemit as we know it, would/could they?
Some of the rules might be flexible or something. But the fundamentals of the blockchain is like a train track that is already predestined. In other words, the root is set in stone as far as I know, the foundation.
