Interesting, but why use root posts? Won't that just clog up the "blog" sites like steemit and busy.org? Couldn't this have been done differently? I'll go ask over there. Thanks for the link! :)
Yeah, it's messy. But my thought was to make it as compatible with existing front-ends as possible. I had thought about doing transfers with replies to the genesis post, but I think there's a limit to how many replies a post can have and I didn't want that to cause me problems in the long run.
You could always create another post and change the protocol to look for that new post also if you run into that limit. Could be considered a second round of the ICO, maybe.
