RE: Centralization...maybe just the tip?
Well, I guess if someone wanted to spend millions just to say something, that's not exactly 'free' speech. I think there are cheaper solutions to spread hate-fueled propaganda. They could pump the value just to say something stupid, we can all just sell, troll the living crap out of them in the meantime, then buy back in after dumping the price and leaving the haters there holding the bag while they pretend to be proud of something.
lol, that's actually a really good solution. I suppose the protection against this is that it would be a huge waste of money since the price would undoubtedly drop dramatically.
buuuuuuuut...
The other part of this doomsday scenario that I mentioned in my comment, but not in this post is if it was corporate sabotage. I know this is getting into some far fetched conspiracy stuff, but if Steem started to eat a chunk of Facebooks profit, Zuck could potentially power up a ton of Steem, flood trending with a million flavors of disgusting content, and cut his losses, because in the end it would be cheaper than losing all those users.
He'd be better off buying us out. Steembook.
