Steem Mining dominated by 2 users now - crushing the little guys :(
I've seen mining go from 4 a day around when the hard fork happened on August 15th to dry up to 1 block in the last 5 days. It's not worth the costs to keep it running. I'd like to support the system but the rewards needs to be there.
I saw this article https://steemit.com/stats/@arcange/the-end-of-steem-cpu-mining-update the shows that everyone else is pretty much being pushed out of mining by two users with multiple accounts.
It starts with @rabbit-01,
@rabbit-02,
@rabbit-03... all the way up to
@rabbit-79 - This one user is controlling 67% of all mining currently.
The next one actually has more account and it starts at gxt-1080-sc-0001 and goes up to gxt-1080-sc-0150
I'm not sure if this whales building server farms or outside guys coming in. But it just seems counter productive to building a community where those that participate are rewarded over just being crushed by basically a large corporate entity squashing all the little guys.
I understand competition but this is just a take over. I mean if this is what the Steem community wants then it's pretty sad in my opinion.
