Yes, great idea. Then Steemit, Inc won't have any incentive to work for the chain, and since most witnesses do nothing, steem is as good as dead.

LOL

yea, in a decentralized system, we need a centralized dev team, right

Decentralized development is utopia. The only coin that has that is Bitcoin, and the bitcoin code is absolute shit. Bitcoin core did not have a hard fork for many years now, and this is what makes it sound money. Sound money shouldn’t change because of a team’s wishes.

Steem (or any altcoin) should never try to compete with bitcoin on this aspect. Every altcoin is centralized, even ethereum. When the DAO hack happened, they just rolled back the transactions and gave money back to investors. So they literally can do whatever they want with the chain, and people will follow Vitalik’s team.

What’s beautiful avout DPOS Is that we cam manage to kind of decentralize development up to 21 witnesses. However right now, all witnesses combined don’t do a tenth of what steemit inc is providing. Hopefully this will change.

I guess you also think anarchy is utopia

it's nature. ;)

Good guess, I do think this. Nature isn’t always good. There is a right balance between anarchy and government, right now, we are waayy too far into the goverment’s side.

Slaves are merely people who let themselves be enslaved. At least in our modern society.
