RE: Steem Blockchain´s Economy: DEVALUATION.

in #steem5 years ago (edited)

Well, one thing that leaps out at me from the very start. Near the top, in the section entitled How are new STEEM tokens created?, you say "These tokens are offered to users according to the value they bring to the platform."

I would strongly, emphatically, vigorously challenge the truth of this statement. You have accurately described how the system is supposed to work, but in fact the tokens are not distributed according to the value the users bring to the system. They are distributed according to how skillfully the users game the system, how successfully they play the vote-trading game or other system-breaking practices. VALUE has nothing to do with it.

I don't play Drug Wars or any of the other STEEM games, but at least they offer some value in the form of enjoyment (presumably).

It's frustrating when you put a lot of effort to create great content without getting enough rewards. Sometimes it seems that gaming the system is better than spending time creating content. At the end of the day we need to feed our stomachs or pay our bills.

Whether to game the system or improve the blockchain in a fair way, I think is very important to understand how this whole thing works.

Hello @redpossum.

That phrase is not really my responsibility. You can find it in Steemit's Whitepaper.

We must reflect on this. If it is in the whitepaper it is because these were the principles that led to the creation of steemit.

So what was the breaking point?

At what point did Marty Mcfly travel into the past to alter our present and perhaps build an alternate timeline?

@juanmolina
If you read my reply carefully, I said "You have accurately described how the system is supposed to work", and of course the whitepaper will describe the theory rather then the reality. It was not my intention to blame you for that ugly reality.

I have no clue what you mean by your comment about Marty McFly.

I like the "Marty McFly" illustration... I thought that was hilarious!

I'm a super fan of that saga.
