RE: Creating a "Lindy-Proof" Ecosystem of DApps on The Steem Blockchain | Skin in the Game
After reading your posts about skin in the game I’ve started to read the audiobook. I completely agree that the concepts in the book are very good, but the quality of the writing is not as good as your posts on the subject. I think the Author should’ve asked you to re-write the book. Please continue putting your thoughts up on here as I think they’re very informative thank you. I’ve just reached the section that you reference in the article above, but if you have any thoughts on the 3% minority section of the book I think that could do with a bit more explanation.
Haha I’m flattered, but Taleb’s writing is much better! He very clearly has a plan and meticulous way of writing. Though it can get confusing to navigate at times! Hopefully my writing is a little more “digestible” by being shorter!
Yes! The minority rule is a very interesting concept. We can see it in effect all over the world. For example, many beverages in the u.s. are kosher because of the minority rule (kosher individuals are the minority, but they set a rule and standard for the majority).
The rule also applies here on Steem. If we see 1 DApp (the minority) see great success and set a new standard for what’s possible (steem monsters raising 88k on Kickstarter), the they may set new standards of practice for the majority and how all the rest of us interact with the blockchain each day!!
