RE: EARTH STARTED OFF DECENTRALIZED JUST LIKE STEEMIT
I wonder if anarchy will rule, that is that the people who wield the most power will make the rules and take control, or whether the system will be designed to harbour and support decentralised, distributed and local channels?
Resteemed!
The question you propose here is absolutely one of the most important for a platform that works on distributed mechanisms and yet potentially allows the tooth and claw riches to create centralised means of control.
So far, it seems, only communal efforts support new comers and the small players however even these look like ways of gaining central power hubs in a monetised power base?
The power of the block chain is to wrestle away control from central servers and yet to translate this into distributed mechanisms of exchange... this still looks like a real challenge.
An excellent post!
