Hey Bernie, not to play devil's advocate or defending Steemit INC for all their actions but I'm wondering why you or others don't take this tech and get your own team together and try to launch a better version of what we are seeing on this blockchain?
Personally I don't have the resources or enough technical knowledge to put all the pieces together but I certainly have a part of the puzzle and can see the potential for this technology.
Again I'm not trying to call you out or anyone else for being critical of things that go on here but it is more of a question for everyone. There is a lot of money in taking what DLive or DTube is and originating a new chain with a fair distribution and other things to avoid the pitfalls of what has happened with STEEM over the past couple of years. Obviously SMOKE and VICE are trying to accomplish that and we will see if they get something going but I'm surprised there aren't tons of other groups doing the same thing and breaking off on their own.
