IMHO, what you may not realize is that Steemit is only a proof of concept platform built on the Steem blockchain. Steem INC has no plans in supporting Steemit the interface as their vision is for SMT’s and spreading the blockchain capabilities to the world. They could very easily combat all the shit that goes on here but choose not to. There will be bigger and better interfaces. The shitty Steemit will be long gone by then.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
The scenario was about the blockchain and not the interface. You claim that they can combat all the shit but choose not to. Care to share more insight into how they could take care of it all?
Steps 1-4 sure seem like the Steemit interface. Did I not read that correctly?
"upvote my pawn each chance I get to feed the greed and rake in the steem."
In regards to how they could combat such abuse is by using their voting power to help protect the platform from bad actors or those trying to manipulate the reward pool via using their down-voting/flags. They have more than enough SP to eliminate rewards, but choose not to. Many other large stakeholders choose not to use their voting power for down voting either.
Steem Inc does not act as a willing participant in the Steem platform. As I mentioned they view the Steemit platform as a proof of concept and would rather have focus on bringing the Steem Blockchain to other entities via SMT's
