RE: Steemit Inc. Powerdown Due to Fears of Having Accounts/Stake Stolen in Future HardFork

in #steem5 years ago

So, forget about using it in a better way, maybe making something beneficial come from it, just join in the exploitation scams and crash the bitch? ...

Sort:  

My benefit is to play catch up in the 21st century in regards to blockchain, and technology in general. I'm not a wealthy man so I have nothing to offer this place except my perspective. If the platform has use cases that are beneficial and lend themselves towards symbiosis and leveling the economic playing field that is global politics it will survive beyond my current negative opinions.

If it can build relationships that extend beyond a screen and some numbers that dictate how powerful or persuasive one is it will in time.

I think everyone here needs to take a step back and realise Rome wasn't built in a day. What is being attempted here is in its infancy and there will surely be crashing and burning.

If there are those truly believe in this potential then they will not be shaken by failure and will focus on rebuilding.

That will also take capital though, so it seems that while I don't philosophically agree with how many choose to participate here they might have higher aspirations and a bigger picture in mind.

Comparing stealing from a rewards pool of bullshit currency with little to no real world applications or evaluations in contrast to Wall Street and the banksters to rape and murder is preposterous.

Two people on earth have more combined wealth than the entirety of crypto so enjoy the ride it's going to get way more bumpy.

Maybe I'm just training the adept for the resistance they will face out there in the real world? That's also beneficial as is my honesty and decidedly blunt approach.. Destruction is not separate from creation. Om namah Shivaya Transcend the FUD and know there will be more obstinate pricks than myself tearing this vision down that will in fact be nefarious whereas I'm just here for the attention 😁

Lol getting quite poetic and inspired in your dark rhetoric @scramatters. I appreaciate your honesty and frankness. We crypto lovers probably came to steemit because we are so convinved by crypto that we think any use thereof or any blockchain platform like this one will be fantastic. Satoshi made such a revolutionary product and nobody has hacked it yet, so we naively think it's always going to be safe. But there will always be the weakness of human nature that is easily corruptible. So even a grand ideal like steemit for example, appears to be crumbling due to the human frailty. Just because it's crypto or blockchain doesn't mean it's going to be perfect by the looks of it. Satoshi built a bulletproof or foolproof system... I hope... but this steem alternative is not as robust in the hands of the foolish and weak minded humans that use it or specifically that run it.
It's not decentralised, it encourages poor quality content or fake bots and profiles for the sake of scamming the system. Surely the witnesses are witnessing this decay. with bitcoin the hackers and scammers may be there but it seems that bitcoin is anti-fragile. it cannot be broken. Steemit on the other hand - like numerous other blockchains - is not bitcoin protocol and has fallen short of the high standard set by Satoshi. Hopefully future generations will learn from ours. This is indeed still the early days of the revolution in tech and commerce and even social dynamics in a highly digitised cyber world on the blockchain.
