it looks similar but being hitched to the ethereum horse is a bad idea imo. ethereum is going to hit scalability problems in the future and this issue is central in guiding my design.
I also am completely against virtual machines. Interpretive languages, well, for now thanks to browsers we are stuck with that but I hope in the future fully native app frameworks will emerge. This will be a later element.
Also, to be clear, steem type rewards for development contributions are the central defining feature of DIV. Nobody has had this idea. The forum is a necessary part because a dev platform needs issue trackers, and from there you go to wiki, and media hosting/monetisation...
@elfspice you are thinking on a different plane to me {smile}... 39 years of I.T. and I am tech'ed out. Was really hoping Steemit was the answer to setting me free ...{shrug}
Sorry, while we talking..your opinion on Waves? I like them and have been investing there for a while now.... your thoughts would be appreciated.
Its also run by guys who have Russian Feds behind them, or so is the general opinion in Russian crypto space. While it might not be true, they also calling their thing the DEX (but with centralized matcher). :>
Sorry, are you talking about Waves here?
Yup
