RE: Talking about Steem’s issues and Ned's actions
While I agree with mostly everything you wrote here, I still think we should give @ned a chance. Yes, he could do well delegating to projects like @ocd and some other cool ones out there, but I feel we should give him the benefit of the doubt...there's still time, maybe he'll come around.
Plus he's working on SMTs, which could be a major gamechanger. Obviously he's made some mistakes lately, but that's obviously @dan getting to him. Sure something happened between them that made @dan leave Steem inc; but we can only speculate.
I just wish @ned wouldn't let @dan mess with him. If he keeps his head straight then the Steem blockchain has a brilliant future, and there'd be no need to migrate to @dan's EOS.
It's not about that he left and didn't notice the problems, the abuses, the bandwidth issues, and the user retention being at an all time low right now. It's about that he notices everyone of them and does nothing. And don't get me wrong, I understand that it was designed to be a decentralized platform, but I think that's too early to leave it into the hands of nature.
You can't be so sure he's doing nothing; and like you said, this is decentralized; there's only so much he can do. The ones who can do things are the witnesses, and I'm sure they're all trying their bests to make things work.
Rome wasn't built in a day. We're still in beta. We might never be perfect, but five years from now when steem is way pass the moon, we'll probably look back on this and smile.
He controls millions in SP (which by the way is powering down through different accounts) and he chooses to support sketchy projects like @guyfawkes4-20 pointed out in the post. Also, from Dan's main account you can see that he withdrew more than 3 million STEEM over the last 5 months. Just some little facts.
And for the Rome part, I agree with you, but Steemit doesn't have 5 years as no other social media ever had. They either go mainstream or collapse way more faster than 5 years. (Steemit has already been around for about 2 years)
Lol. I think you're a little overexcited about moving to dan's eos platform--which doesn't even exist yet. I think it's cos you're fairly new to steemit.
Whales powering down is something that happens. It's nothing to panic about. Whales invest, whales power down. We'll be fine.
