RE: Who would you trust more with the future of the biggest crypto-currency?
As long as the whales never earn the power to mark a post as spam with a single flag hit, Steemit should survive and thrive, becoming the one true platform for uncensored information. 🐳
The great thing is though that even if a post is walloped down to zero rewards and greyed out it is still visible. It can never be deleted. Although lately there have been a few cases where I have almost wished that some could lol
Ha ha, this is true, but if the post is less than 7 days old, you could literally edit every aspect of the post into something totally different.
I must say though too, that I kind of enjoy the idea of permanence in social media... it causes people to think before they post. 😉
You could do that but the blockchain is immutable and the evidence would always be there if someone were to dig :O)
I thought it only goes to the blockchain after 7 days?
Oh no, everything is recorded on the blockchain as soon as it is posted, comments or posts and votes. So if someone changes something you can look at the blockchain to see what was written before
Oh dear... I better think more before I post then. 😉
Always ;O)
