Well, you can have your decentralized among the few thousand of you (who really care and would stay JUST for the decentralized aspect, itself). I'd rather have slightly less centralized than what's out

There's a big world outside of the Steem blockchain of potential "recruits" (with their own track-records in related fields) for a governance position. It doesn't have to come from within this

The only problem is that I really like to write from time to time, and I guess my articles to become real flag festivals if I keep posting and at the same time flagging abusive whales. :) I hear you. One

We're basically on the same page about how these kind of changes are handled. I picture this upcoming hard-fork as more of a "hail mary" than a well-thought out solution to all of the underlying

You might be right. Who knows, this HF might be the last nail in the coffin on Steem's chances at self-sustainability as an economy, but I feel like action needs to take place now; some kind of change

I mostly agree. The "regular users with decent content" aren't a problem. Their content deserves to get discovered and their effort deserves monetary kick-back. It's the other seemingly 60% that

I agree that that would likely be the majority of the focus (Haejin, don't know if I spelled that correctly, comes to mind as an account that could/ should receive some of that focus), but even a small

The authors who use bots will, by and large, benefit from this change at the expense of those who don't. That assumes that bot users won't have their bot upvotes downvoted away by larger SP holders who

I'm on the same page on my read of the market. I'm convinced that BTC is long overdue for a test of the 20 weekly moving average, which is currently just a tad bit above $7K (that would put a test of it

Might as well. Nothing to lose and potentially a lot to gain, if it ends of being a successful platform.

Have some LEO for your efforts, my man!

You had me excited... until you dropped that last bomb :( Your next challenge is to do some Playboy wordplay. Penthouse would be too easy.

It's simple supply and demand economics at play. If that's what happens to sell best, that's what those who desire above all else to stay relevant (to the majority) will supply (money talks). Give the

All I know is that the first users of Steemit, the people who put energy into accumulating as much Steem as possible when the competition was still low, made A LOT of money for their efforts. I see Voice

Should show up in the wallet tab, as highlighted by the red arrow in the image below that I copied and pasted from the mentioned post.

This post gives the details that you need (scroll to the end for a pic of what you're after): Note that you need a Steem-Engine account (click on the PALnet symbol). The "claimdrop" is capped

Welcome aboard, bro!

Of course, bro. I wouldn't have known about it if you hadn't posted, so it's the least I could do in return. Also, thanks for the "cheat sheet". I don't have time to watch those silly videos
