Since STEEM, the blockchain is MIT open source, that means whaleshares is able to borrow from that code base, just as much as steem can borrow from whaleshares too.
...more competing ideologies from similar code bases, is exactly what we need to propel this space.
wow, that is some deep shit... you must be smart or something... graphene based?? holy hell
:) I should have been saying DPOS... .oops.
