Who is defending bullying here? Stake-weighted platforms are built on the idea that those with greater stake have greater proportional influence. Saying this is "killing Steemit" is like saying that fire is killing the sun.

I agree that power is abused, and am open to corrections being made there, in regard to large accounts wiping out smaller ones in one fell swoop, but the stake-weighting aspect is not the problem.

Sort:  

"but the stake-weighting aspect is not the problem."

How is it not the problem when it's possible to wipe out a smaller account?

I'm not saying stake-weighting on the whole is bad, I'm saying the ability to wipe out a smaller account is bad.

Right. Stake-weighting literally is Steemit. Adjustments to protocols can be made within that framework to help curtail abuses.
