RE: Behind Steemit #17 - Secret Payouts and Steemit bug
Hello @inquiringtimes, nice to e-meet you! I globally share your point of view, but if you flip through @behindsteemit's previous publications you'll see it seems to be a quite common practice for that Steemit2 account to send big (sometimes huge) amounts of STEEM/SBD to profiles with no other activity than being (anonymous) intermediary recipients for those transactions, before sending the money sometimes to another "grey" account, sometimes back to Steemit2, and in other cases directing it to an Exchange. Aren't there less intricate ways to proceed?
idk... it just doesn't seem that suspicious or out of the ordinary to me.
numbers are just numbers.
data analysts seem prone to jumping conclusions when they see large funds moving around.
ultimately a ton of money got made with steem. I believe the creators also have an incentive to continue to make steem grow and prosper... all of this stuff, I'm just not sure if it's helpful....
except that I do believe that since blockchains are made for transparency, we have a duty as a community to examine them. that's all. :shrug:
