Every decision our engineers make with respect to the blockchain is intentional and designed to ensure that Steem is sustainable and scalable. We have seen countless projects over the years that raise money through ICOs making bold claims but that fail to back them up with actual code. We welcome all competitors, but will not adjust our strategy or plans based on supposed claims made by people looking to piggyback off of our brand. If someone creates better code, we're happy to integrate it. Unfortunately, the competitors never seem to materialize. There are many reasons for the 7 day pay out. People dramatically overestimate the value of so-called "evergreen" content while dramatically underestimating the cost to the blockchain of infinite payouts. But we wish UUNIO all the luck in the world ... they're going to need it.

That response made my day! Thank you.
" bold claims but that fail to back them up with actual code. " Exactly what I was thinking. Right now they have nothing, just "we want to do this and that"
But the best thing about your response is, that you actually are aware of competitor strategies and seem to have discussed it in the developer team. That's great.
But: We all would appreciate more communication though. Weekly updates about what you are doing, planning and thinking would be greatly appreciated. I know you heard that a thousand times already, but the communication frequency sucks!
"If someone creates better code, we're happy to integrate it. " Thank you!
