calling it now, The EOS maximalist will say :

in #eos6 years ago

Satoshi never wanted decentralization

I am already seeing this forming around the platform. They think that institutional money is only going to consider the platform if 21 block producers are capable of freezing their wallets.

EOS maximalists are already just as annoying as BTC and ETH maximalists. We need to get block producers that will do as little as possible to be voted in. These idiots having the power to freeze wallets is going to make things very difficult for the platform to be sustainable.

I still think there is hope.

Sort:  

Who the heck is saying that nonsense statement?

I keep seeing more and more of this stupid shit. And also things like "decentralization is not the goal it's just a means to create censorship resistant money". What ?

Sometime I wonder if the ideology of "True Decentralization" is actually achievable.

I feel we are just practicing what I call a A Centralized Decentralize System", Plutocracy as is well known as.

My opinion though.

The problem with a lot of these Decentralized models is the "more you have the more you get" philosophy. Given enough time those that have the most will find ways to get more and create imbalances and gaps between the haves and the havenots.

Its not a good model but it's the only incentive that seems to provide sustainable growth of a blockchain so far!

EOS is a good case study into whether or not a blockchains integrity can be maintained with a distributed conensus algorithm which is necessary for maintaining performance of blockchains in the future. But so far I do not like the capitalization model I do not see the incentive to use EOS other than performance versus other chains. How do I get a monetary gain from that, DAPPs maybe, they might have more use cases but the so far there is little to prove it works.

I completely see your point. But I want to at least curtail the obviously stupid things. If we can get things within a decent range then ill be happy with EOS. We need to get some lazy BPs listed.

True...

Things should be corrected else only the masses will be left to suffer the burnt.

They didn't need it. They just ended up getting that much organically.

So, now I'm expected to believe the EOS team will use 4 Billion dollars to give Free Airdrops to everyone?

The system doesn't work that way. Blockone is not doing any airdrops at all.

A famous saying comes to mind: "There are no Free Lunches."

Then what are you doing on the steem platform? EOS is merely a more advanced version of steem.
