I propose that we change the number of witness votes from 30 down to 10.

I would actually be in favor of dropping it even lower than that 10 number, perhaps something around 5 would be even better.

Why do I say that?

Currently we have a situation where the top 20 witnesses are basically all being decided by the votes of just a couple of the largest stake holders.

That means the direction of the platform is basically being defined by just a couple of the largest stake holders.

That is the opposite of decentralized.

I propose that we limit the number of votes to 10 (or even better 5), in order to better protect and decentralize the chain.

Please help me get this in front of Steemit,Inc so we can make this change as soon as possible.

Thank you.
