I'm just small fry here too, so I don't have any answers, but I've also experienced a lot of bugginess with esteem :(
They may plan to make money from companies who want to build off the blockchain. I recently read about a company planning to do that in order to connect clients and independent contractors while operating under an open ledger. It's an interesting idea!
Good to see you again @helenoftroy
Yeah, I just assume the bugginess is part of being a new platform.
So, renting out the Steem blockchain or something? Or creating forked blockchains for companies?
Remember to stay away from big wooden horses, lol sorry I had to...
I picked up what they're doing, not really on how they're doing it. But I'm sure you could find out more. The company was @bobsrepair. And I just found the article.
LOL, the big wooden horses aren't the problem, I just make sure to stay away from anyone named Paris.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I'll be sure to give it a read.
