Steemit does not control the blockchain, RC's are for steemit. It is my understanding that Dapps will have to pay their own way on the chain. So if a dapp wants to create a twitter resteamer, then the dapp and dapp user are going to have to pay the RC cost of the posting. They have not been silenced it just that it cost them more to post. "I had eggs for breakfast. What did you have" with a picture of their breakfast.
There is no exclusiveness for steemit.com. It is a simple dapp which interacts with the blockchain like any other dapp (d.tube, steepshot, busy) and they have no more rights to interact with the steem blockchain. The Hardfork introduced RC´s which are a system wide upgrade. Every dapp needs to deal with the Resource Credits now.
See reply to andrarchy, I did not word that very well at all, and did not mean to imply that only steemit had RC's. Any post, vote, comment or transaction is going to cost RC's, and it does not matter what front end or application is used.
No, RCs are for all Steem DApps. Nothing is specific to steemit.com. A transaction on steemit.com will cost just as much in RCs as the same transaction on another Steem DApp like a twitter clone.
I thought that was what I said:
But I see where I did not word it well, in that sentence. I tried to explain it via:
At least this is the way I understood how the RC's worked. The dapp or the user was going to have to pay the RC cost. So if a person wants to do 30 twitter type quick little post, they or their dapp provider is going to bear the RC cost, and not be subsidised so to speak. Just as a Steemit user needs to pay the RC cost for their posting.
