RE: STEEM has no future if it does not preserve its fundamental source of value: 100% human curation
you're welcome.
but you're still wrong.
just as the biological ecosystem can support a bunch of different grazing animals (sheep, cows, gazzeles...etc)
so can the crypto-ecosystem support many coins..
My trained instincts say otherwise. But I haven't formally (mathematically) analyzed the question. Think of MP3 audio files. The MP3 file format sucks totally. It wasn't even designed with music in mind. It is proprietary, so the file format documentation isn't even readily available; all programmers who work with the format must basically reverse engineer the files to obtain the format specifications. From a programming perspective, MP3 is a total cluster fuck.
Yet MP3 swept like wildfire through the audio file market, forcing Sony and other equipment manufacturers to abandon their own superior (and also proprietary) file formats and redesign their hardware to give users what they demanded: MP3 compatibility.
Network effects are extremely powerful. When you look out the window today, you will not see 100 different audio file formats in use. When you look out the window tomorrow, you will not see 100 different cryptocurrencies in use as general media of exchange.
I just looked out the window.
I saw a bulldog pooping on the lawn.
He wasn't afraid of your cats?
apartment complex...not really my 'lawn'
Tigers are endangered in Asia, but in Texas they’re backyard pets
so I don't have a back yard...
Why have I been picturing you sitting on the porch of a rustic ranch house made of unpainted weathered boards, like out of a Western movie set?
I dunno..but that would be wonderful..
I built a house like that back in the eighties.
My son lives there now.
He has a front yard shooting range.
Pistol AND rifle.
Some times he 'gets dinner' by standing on his porch and shooting it .
I think that it was the picture of you with your cat. The background made me think that you were in the country.
People here have front yard shooting ranges, too, but I don't think you mean that kind of "game".
rabbits mostly...the occasional deer.
