RE: A MESSAGE TO THE WHALES FROM THE KING OF STEEMIT!
Great post steemking. I resteemed it.
It is discouraging to see some spell out something after being an active participant here for so many months. It does, indeed, appear that the system is rigged and the whales take full advantage of it. People need to have a chance and the idea of steem it is that all could profit. However, if this is a forum where only the few profit while the masses starve, well isnt Steemit just like Facebook, Reddit, and the rest of the banking controlled mechanism that are out there?
I really hope the coders can come up with an answer to some of these problems.
I'm actually a developer (not for steemit of course), stopping the whales from upvoting themselves would be a trivially easy fix.
In regard to the banking controlled social media giants, I would say steemit is better than them, even with this flaw, because it's on the blockchain, so this flaw is auditable and we're able to have an open and honest discussion about it. This is not the case with the other social media giants.
