RE: How is the Flagging Whale-Votes Experiment Going?

in #steemit • 8 years ago

I'm not writing rants. Apart from this, but that was a joke 😊

Although it is users, other whales are having their upvotes negated, so somewhatish it is the user with the most SP.
I plan to buy more steem (not to be a whale, but just to invest some), but I'm currently watching the price. I've got a feeling it's going up mid/end April and not coming down again so waiting and watching to get good gains.
And although I believe that the Steem blockchain and steemit platform will be successful I do believe that the concentration and consolidation of power is a serious issue that needs addressed. One of the things that attracts me to cryptocurrency is the code behind it, allowing it to surpass and overcome many failings of fiat currencies. I don't think it is wrong for whales to have so much power, but currently it is weighted too much, or at least appears that way to me.
