Centralization of Steem

I order for Steem really to work, there need to be more decentralization of the Steem token, then there is now. You do not need to be a statistician and come with a huge detailed analysis of the distribution of the Steem Power, to know that there are a huge concentration of Steem power on relatively few hands. There are websites where you can explore the Steem power holders and the picture is clear, there are few people at the top with a lot of Steem Power.

At least some bullies have a lot of Steem Power

There are bullies that flag individualt because of ego, rather then because of there is something offensive or objectively wrong with the content. @naganoo 's last 70 posts has all been flagged. I do not know everything about @naganoo , but I have seen him making decent and good posts that get flagged, because of ego of bullies, rather then because @noganoo is doing anything wrong (Correct me if I am wrong).

I have got to know a lot of Steemians since august last year, when I joined this place. I see there are many quality individuals here, but unfortunately there are also many shady types. Via SteemSpeak (a place I regret to some extent that I even spend my time), I have found a lot of doubtly charactors. Mostly annonymous statism minded people, that are acting like trolls trying to make a bug on crypto and then going to there slave job. Some of these have been very agressive towards my person, which is completely immoralic, I don't even know who these people are, since they are attacking from an annonymous profile. All I know is that most of them are statist, that beleive in statism and they are bullies and highly shady charactors. @fyrstikken let them act like this in his SteemSpeak channel, which also make him a very shady person.

Some of these people have a lot of Steem Power, some have a little. Over all I don't think they contribute to the community of crypto in a positive way.

Scammers get relatively high rewards

There are some scammers that get highly rewarded on Steemit. For instance @craig-grant he get rewarded in mid-range and @jeffberwick / @dollarvigilante who is also a known scammer in the community gets highly rewarded on Steemit. I guess they are paid for bringing attention to Steemit, but still they are scammers and the Steemit community need to ask itself if it benefits crypto and Steemit to reward scammers like they are somekinds of good people?

I found that most of the people connected with Jeff Berwick are also not really truths-worthy, they might have a following, but many of them seem like scam-artists. Again the steemit community needs to sk if these people really benefit Steemit and are worthy of the rewards.

The Blockchain is about the truth, so Steem and Steemit should be highly rewarded on Steemit

Satoshi Nakamoto made the Bitcoin protocul to solve a lot of problems in the world. With the blockchain technology he made it possible to reach consensus on a whole new level and in my view that is the same as making a tool for storing "the truth". So a part of the crypto philosophy is very connected with the truth / freedom movement. Steemit should be a place where real truthers are highly rewarded.

I must admit that I have personally got pretty high rewards for just posting real flat earthers videos, I am not complaining about that and are thankful. It goes to proof that Steemit is working to some extent. But still a "Nasshole" is getting even higher rewards, which go to show that a lot of people on Steemit is not promoting the truth.

The flat earth movement should be highly rewarded on Steemit in my oppinion. The problem in this is of course that many people have not waken up jet, so it is a dilemma. We need to reward the true flat earther to wakeup more people. It shows also that many of the whales on Steemit have not waken up to the truth, since if they had, they should have been flagging this Nasshole ( https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@fredrikaa/from-nasa-to-steemit-introducing-me-and-my-space-adventure ) to the point where he got 0 reward.

I have personally been writing @ned, the CEO of Steemit about this, since I also think that Steemit will get a lot of exposure if the real flat earthers begin to utilize Steemit as their platform. I have not heard anything from @ned yet.

Lack of development

Other then this, then I thnk that there are many features that have not been implementet as expected, like:

• private messaging fully encrypted on the site.
• private confidential transactions
• other improvement that would attract more people to use Steem and Steemit

I will say that I do not know much about the hardforks and it seems like that important improvements have been done.

I am sure that the Steemit inc work hard to make Steemit better. At this point in time, I think that the price will go lower because of the above issues of Steemit.

And a real Yunk'er only buy Steem below 1 cent ;)

Steem on !
