Great post Luke. Lots of information I wasn't aware of.
I think the future for Steem is a decentralized community owned and operated by the members who give it value
I completely agree with you but worry about the SP stake held by Steemit. If we moved to a decenralised community owned model, in my mind, the main Steemit account and accounts like Mr Delegation would need to be transferred to the community somehow.
I have no idea if this could happen or how but I think there is huge potential for the model you advocate if it can be made a reality.

Yeah, I'm concerned about the token distribution as well which is why I included that in my list of questions. I hope it gets addressed at some point.
