RE: HF20 Update: Restoring Continuity

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

The problem here with #hf20 is the comedic nature and the massive number of hoops that were jumped through to ignore the commonly known ills of the platform. They are mainly self-interest and will of people to retain their equity in the platform as they gain it, and find ways that they can game the system.
The problem is the HF-20 is a Rube Goldberg Machine. Not familiar what that is or maybe heard of it but it's bugging you what exactly again it was? Here is an example...

Had this fork done virtually nothing but instituted SMTs and made this platform compatible to get half SP half chosen SMT of the poster's wish the economy would be less insulated and then value would eventually would have to be created, or the same tokens would be getting pushed around, and the garbage posters would be missing out in upping their status on the platform of up to half of their payments (if they choose to operate in garbage tokens they issue themselves), and eventually become a dinosaur as the people who providing things of value (using @steemmonsters as a prime example of that). With their own SMT, @steemmonsters could use the upside of the Steem token in getting half payouts in SP, and half payouts in their own SMT. Those would carry much more value than the garbage tokens that would come out and have to prove themselves as valued to the will of the community and can grow at that type of pace. Rather than being tethered to the same economy that is based solely on the buying of bids from concentrated pools of wealth because that is virtually the only way people who are new to here know how to gain a positive footing. But instead we have countless new moving parts all over the place, and eventually (allegedly) will make this a SMT friendly place. I will say this again as I have said until I have become blue in the face...
...either Steemit comes up with a fork that has full-blown SMT compatibility very soon, or it will be made obsolete by a blockchain platform that may be half as good with all other dapps, or whatever creations that become because we do not have the byteballs to make the decision to fix the Steemit economy the easy way, versus the Rube Goldberg Machine that just came out.

I love the analogy of the Rube Goldberg Machine... I think its worse because it makes that napkin actually give you the flu too because its contaminated. So not only did your napkin not work as you expected, but now you have infected the patient with a needless disease.
