@mindhunter Talks About 'The Steemit Miracle Question': What If You Woke Tomorrow And Something Had Drastically Changed On Steemit. What Would You Want It To Be? [Personally I'd Like Steemit To Go From Being A Singapore To A Switzerland!]
I want steemit to be a blockchain bank, you can use your steem reputation to get loans, currently BTCJam is completly screwed. I worked 2 years building up my reputation there, I could fund 10'000$. I still have reputation, but the problem is they just changed the % for loans, now its become completly useless. I want to offer Banking service loans on Steemit, Escrow service, Steemit is really nice for that because you are a person that has a trackable history. There is no censorship. Steemit if freedom. So I want to see a opportunity to express my thought and ideas, I see Steemit as the best plattform for that.
A transparent government spending plan on the blockchain. Dubai is already trialling it and they hope to have it operating by 2020. But why not use Steemit as the backbone app?? Why design a whole new one??
That sounds fascinating, but, who would decide what the government should look like? The community or a few SP whales with all their influence or Steemit founders?
Switzerland is suffering from the same problems as Singapore, just a different ism corrupted by globalism.
I would like to see a system much like Americas founders tried to promote but failed to protect. The states and middle class have all the power, corporations and private banks are chartered to be revoked when they try and centralize and monopolize.
We need to move from the "best of the worst" to the "least worst option". Democracy has failed too, but it's the least worst option here. Benevolence is not the answer.
It doesn't mean it is the most important one, but the first thing that came to mind was each vote for witnesses counting equally, in stead of by wallet size. Probably because of just heaving read this.
I have relatives in Switzerland and I'm not sure to see it as a wonderful model. ;) Just kidding, ok?
Anyway, the best scenario I can imagine, in your miracle possibility, is to keep having a benevolent dictator but with a fixed expiry date and a roadmap to make this community able to walk on its own legs, without dictatorship anymore. But as a model, I'd prefer something more opened to change and to foreign people than Switzerland. We don't want a closed group, do we? ;)
If Steemit doesn't have ads to make money and Steemit makes profits through steemian activity I would think it would make sense to have steem currency taken out when not active. I came upon an account that had hundreds of accounts that voted for their own post. I wish I could remember the account. I asked if that is a good thing to do for a person starting out but they never responded. Why have so many accounts? All the 800+ accounts didn't help their post get rewards.
How strange can a bot account get? Please, tell me more on what an eccentric legacy bots can do to a community? I have so many questions... my mind has gone into cartoon rogue mode. Puleeeeeze, do a post on this to get these images out of my head! I can't stop > Your informative post on bad bots could become an event? Wanted posters > Steem Rewards for capture. Oh.. the drama! I better stop now before all reputation is gone!

How about a Steemit government on the blockchain too? Steem.Gov??
What would a Steem Gov look like?

Dubai is a benevolent government of Sheikh rule - just don't tell anyone! Loving the animated GIF BTW!!
Yes, this is always been a good idea to do. SteemLoans. I was working on a draft of this not to long ago and should bring it back up.

I'd like to see that the 6 deep comment limitation and after-20-days-no-comment-no-edit thing annihilated
Both will be solved by hard fork 17. Nesting will now be 255 deep :))
Thats amazing :)
Thanks for the knowledge drop !
This one little change can help hundreds of Steemers - hopefully?!!
I think so.
Life is good in the Steemian world! :))
Swiss watch :D he talks about me :D
I certainly do, now get to work on Steemit! Ha ha!

You got some toilet roll hanging from your chin dude!
Man! I need to check out those mirrors before I come on here! Ha ha!

Interesting selection. I think I might get a few witness related answers here in the comments today.

Ha ha! An excellent insight into modern Switzerland there. Many thanks for the update. I really like that final sentence :)) Great comment!
thx :)
Steem for Enterprise business too ... the list is endless! Thanks for passing by @paolobeneforti :)
I thought accounts that were not being used were having currency taken out. Is that true or not?
Not sure on that one?? Can any other Steemians help here??

There are many old legacy bots accounts out there doing the strangest things!!
