Dear @nickyhavey
Such a great and valuable publication. Thanks for sharing this "comprehensive" and long guide it with me :)
I shared it with few guys from project.hope. I think they may benefit from reading your article.
What this means for existing users of Steem is that everything will work exactly the same on Hive.
Kind of. Will we have steemd.com to check our voting power? Will we have steemauto and steemworld? What about steemconnect and steem keychain? Not many things will work exacly the same way on hive.
After recent events, putting together this latest Bluffer's Guide was a no-brainer given that the topic of decentralised governance
Hive will show if decentralized governance can work out. Right now HIVE will be fully centralized. More than steemit ever was. And no storytelling will change it. Hive will be absolutely dominated by group of few closely realted users/businesses and I can forsee that anyone having different view on their actions will be quickly silenced.
Yours, Piotr
