RE: Hive chain coming is a SHAME TIME for Steem.
People tend to believe what they are told. Bad time for STEEM. If you are leaving STEEM then shut down your witness node. I love STEEM no matter what, thus I stay.
No matter what, even if all the witness nodes are controlled by one person? Is that even a blockchain?
All nodes controlled by one person? by who?
It's just your imagination.
Justin Sun, the majority of top 20 witnesses are run by him, most likely on one computer
You didn't read my post carefully. My post says the two nuclear weapon.
Currently some top witness's accounts are the remnants of war.
As the community stabilizes, those accounts will definitely be replaced by real people.
If this is not possible, I will scold him.
12/20 are fake witnesses, 1-2/20 are fake witnesses pretending to be real people, 1-2/20 are newly created legitimate accounts, 5/20 have been on Steem and active for many months. The majority of those accounts do not know how to properly run a witness and have had to receive help because they were breaking the chain, and at least 12 of those witnesses went offline yesterday. The one thing they all have in common is they are in the pocket of Sun letting him control them and through them the Steem chain meaning he can edit anything he wants to.
There are two more nuclear weapons you did not mention. One is to censor people's posts so others can not view them. The second is to centralize the chain by controlling all witnesses so you can delete posts, take funds, or do anything you want with the code of the blockchain
I mentioned two weapons to illustrate that it was the witnesses who first upgraded the conflict into war. And Justin took the same aggressive action as a counterattack. That's why you can see many fake witnesses in current witness list.
You said this will cause he can do anything he want. But this is just a theory. Justin bought Steem inc. not for fun. His purpose is to improve the Steem's value and then he can earn more money. I can't find any reason he would do those things you said. If he does that, then he is an idiot.
Let's put it another way. If you bought a company, but the first day you took office, you just issued a statement on the company's future planning, and then your shareholders were collectively voted to freeze your stock. What would you think? What would you do?
I would talk with my shareholders to ask why they froze those funds and how I could get them unfrozen.
I wouldn't attack my shareholders, make my employees resign, lie about the shareholders, refuse to talk to shareholders except occasionally, and after I've finished talking to them politely attack them publicly 5 minutes later. I also wouldn't pay people to pretend to be shareholders or censor what the shareholders say if I don't like it.
"His purpose is to improve the Steem's value and then he can earn more money." well, the creation in Hive showed that he unfortunately failed in that aspect. I mean, he's been the best marketing for Hive recently lol
If talking is useful, the top witnesses won't lock the account.
Why did top witnesses think talking is no more useful? Let me tell you the reason. The reason is that Justing touches their cheese not the community's benefit.
I don't think everything you heared about Justing is true.
In this incident, the emotions of most people were stirred up by the top witnesses. People lost their mind.
We're adults, not kids. If you think Hive is getting a good marketing recently, you are too naive. Fork is not a win-win thing. It's a lose-lose thing. It's like Brexit. No one will win in the future.
Time will prove it.
The past witnesses may not be better than Justin?
Four years have passed. They got more benefit from some unknown big whale's accounts and what those people did?
If the Steem is running well, why Ned sold the compony.
Ned sold the company because he couldn't use the funds for himself because they were promised to the community. In the past 4 years many projects have been created on Steem and many changes have been made to Steem by witnesses. Idk why peiople think witnesses have done nothing and just sit around twiddling their funds while they make a lot of money. Idk why you would even have a problem with that since Sun said he was just here to make money.
Sun's sock puppets have negatively affected the blockchain because they are incorrectly run and even yesterday failed by turning off for a while. One of the witnesses in the top 20 he voted in had to ask help from the old witnesses how to run a backup server because he knew nothing about what he was doing.
Was there a time that the top 20 witnesses are voted by one single account freedom/pumpkin?
Is that even a blockchain that there is a centralised blacklist saying who should not get airdoped?
I'd like to run a steem witness as well, how do I get setup?
Dear @lukestokes
I like you. I really do. However Im finding it difficult to agree with you now. Right now we has steem, which was quite decentralized (for the first time ever) - because on one side you had group of witnesses working closely together and representing central power (under leadership of blocktrades). Additionally we had few witnesses/nodes run by Justin.
That was more decentralized than what we will have now:
None of it is remotly decentralized.
Yours, Piotr
Voting you for this position.
