I totally agree with what you said. I even wrote a post about how steemit currently isn't fair because the whales are using the system for their own benefit (up-voting each other) instead of searching for innovative creators in the NEW sections that are being under voted or are just not known yet. Right now steemit it is only partially decentralized but the whales can fix a few issues on the network by searching for new content, resteeming, and up-voting good creators. At the end of the day, steemit is still in beta and it's a long term project. It's kinda sad to realize that humans are the main issue not the system. The issue isn't in centralization, it's in us (though decentralization helps a ton). Thank you for replying. you made much better points than I did. let's just hope this issues get "fixed", so we can be ready for mass adoption.
Great post btw
Yeah I think there are lots of people who join and leave because of what he said, actually probably most of them, I only stayed because I like a challenge. Why would whales change a game that's rigged in their favor? It's been that way since the beginning of the platform, nothing about the way it was handled was ever designed to make you or me rich, lol.

This is probably one of those moments you wish you could turn back time and be here since day one. You would have been making thousands!
Edit: or a had a few million dollars to throw into the system.

My ultimate goal isn't to be a billionaire amongst a bunch of poor people. Trickle-down has never worked and it doesn't really work here either.

Fair point, but when you're a whale, you can help other minnows out. Be a billionaire so you can help others out because as a minnow, you really don't have that much power/influence to make a difference.

I really liked your post here @saitou everything you said and I would add the words 'and exploitation' at the very end after your word adoption. My response to v4vapid's whale(s) bonbons tribute is way down this comments list but I highlighted my comment with a noise track v4vapids self-congratulatory post reminds me of and most Steemians would be familiar with.
