I haven’t really had time to dig into who the most influential user is on Hive yet. Nevertheless the people that currently are in the top 20 spots are those that made hive reality in the first place. I’m happy to have them there (I in fact vote for most of them). In time, when we settle on the platform, we shall see how the witness positions are going to change.
I any case without the pre-mined tokens and without Ned and Justin we are the closest to "decentralized" position than we have been ever before. But as I said we lack some instrumental aspects as of yet in order to function well.
We definitely need the discussions to happen on chain!
