RE: Blockchain Update: Platform Independent State Files
We've already had (and possibly still have), I believe a majority or close to it of top witnesses (and certainly at least the 1/3 required break BFT) run by a single person because of outsourcing (witness

RE: SMT Voting Mana Deep Dive
I agree on the first point. The advantage that multiaccounting can incrementally increase votes without penalty but single accounts can't is not ideal.

RE: Steem experiment: Burn post #359
High inflation is a huge challenge for Steem and it is very possible that paying out less % inflation (via burning) would increase the price of Steem and therefore ultimately increase the amount (in purchasing

RE: Steem experiment: Burn post #359
See my reply to @whatsup here. Ironically I started creating the comments because I though they would attract (spread out) some of the votes away from the posts and reduce the trending effect. That didn't

RE: Steem experiment: Burn post #359
That's fair but IMO this is more a question of whether the Trending page is really implemented and featured in an ideal manner, and perhaps having this 'content' there is a way to drive home the point.

RE: "Why in the world would I want my tweets immutable?" - A Case for Censorship Resistant Social Media
Steem is a little more complicated because of the rewarding function. If you expect to be rewarded by Steem stakeholders for your contributions I don't think it is reasonable to have it only be visible

RE: The good, the bad and the ugly
I don't see the curve empowering big abusers and self-voting whales, they already have high power regardless. Any effect of the curve on them is negligible (few percent maybe). The positives and negatives

The idea itself is powerful. People can already use this as a basis for downvotes if they think it is unhealthy.

How is it doing? Is the user base growing? Do the tokens retain or gain value?

RE: Blockchain Update: Platform Independent State Files
Pretty much agree with everything you said. It is a helpful clarification. You could even build some very fancy apps using a combination of escrow, multisig and the hierarchical nature of the key structure

RE: SMT Voting Mana Deep Dive
The point about multiple accounts is an excellent one. But with multiple accounts you can't remove the first vote at all, only add to it or subtract from it with a downvote. Not exactly the same thing

RE: Blockchain Update: Platform Independent State Files
Platform independent state files should be signed by whomever is claiming they are a valid record of the blockchain state, and/or potentially signed by consensus witnesses, possibly with the valid state

Soft consensus is nothing more than a receipt that you are owed something, it isn't in and of itself possession. The truth is that if you don't possess the asset (due to on-chain execution) you might have

RE: SMT Voting Mana Deep Dive
This makes sense if you think of something analogous to tag abuse. Perhaps it is mischaracterized with respect to one community/SMT but still got votes. It should be downvoted there but perhaps upvoted

I think the future focus is to shift toward communities rather than tags, though tags will still exist.

RE: SMT Voting Mana Deep Dive
There may or may not be one, or different applications may offer different aspects of it. There are already many functions on the blockchain that don't map directly to most or all UIs.

RE: SMT Voting Mana Deep Dive
As I noted elsewhere, I think penalties, even fairly harsh, for changing votes are reasonable given the inherently sequential nature of voting. Your vote may induce others to vote after you and then when
