RE: Beginning To Lose Motivation On Steemit...

in #steemit7 years ago

Appreciate the kind words and your time on writing this. I understand what youre saying and I do believe in the platform and I understand that the market determines everything which is fantastic and its definely a long process. Im just venting because its definitely frustrating at the beginning for sure which is where im at. I will continue to post on this platform in lieu of facebook because I find it informative and constantly growing my knowledge.

Sort:  

Mind you it is absolutely possible that control on this platform will be or maybe already has been centralized as well which would enable a small number of users who own enough of the stake to decide which posts get promoted to the front page, receive the most money, etc.

In that case it would be up the community to confront and overcome that or walk away. My point is it's up to the community to play along and shape the platform just like in the 'real world'. The difference to other platforms is there exists this price discovery mechanism that has a reputation/experience weighting built in which is great - and also opens the door for consolidating control.

Seems we're all in one very large experiment.
