RE: Is Steem Centrally Controlled?

in #stopthepowerdown5 years ago

Hi Luke

I share much of your frustration with regards to the memo text. As you mention '...to secure wallets' had me questioning what was meant by this exactly. E.g. Are Steem wallets not secure?

Well I'm pretty confident that 'yes' is the answer, but the wording used did cloud thinking somewhat.

I also cannot understand the link between 'stickiness' and homepages - unless the page is so confusing that you are stuck on it wondering where to head next.

In the talk at the beginning of the week, I heard @fyrstikken mention that there had been discussions last month regarding nulling Steemit's account, and so went to have a look around:

The post is just over a month old. There are a couple of names mentioned, but the scale of the 'talk' is unknown. From what Ned said last night, he seemed upset that this wasn't brought to him by Witnesses. My guess is that, like you, not many knew of whatever discussions were being held and so couldn't report anything.

Glad to hear you are very much against anything of the sort.

What that obviously means is anonymous wallets. An unfortunate side effect of this shit show was the pulling of delegations from Musing and DSound.
