RE: Blockchained: The End of Financial Freedom

I'm just guessing here, but I see Steem/SBD dropping to around $1.25 - $1.50 in the coming weeks along with all other ctyptos falling in price, but then shooting way up shortly after that with Steem/SBD in the $12.00-$15.00 range. Especially if HF 20 fixes current problems with the platform, and Smart media Tokens encourage more developers to create apps for the Steemit Blockchain.

What problems does HF 20 promise to fix? IMHO, bid bots will kill Steem's value if not dealt with.

IDK that any promises have been made to fix a specific thing, but the next fork would be the time to fix problems with the site. Bid bots and self-upvoting seem to be the two biggest problems. People running the bid-bots are basically ripping everyone off, and ruining Steemit. The only way to profit from a bit bot is if the ROI is close to 210%. anything lower than that, and you lose money. Everyone using bid bots loses their SBD/Steem. The quality of posts goes down, and those running the bid bots make hundreds of thousands of dollars.

I totally agree. Bid bots are a short sighted profit grab that subverts the potential for long term gains and ascent of the platform. It is the current mindset of our culture. The future looks bleak. It's a sign of the times.
