Why the Whale War might be good for Steemit

in steemit •  7 years ago 

In all honesty, as a new member myself, people should focus on creating good content and sincerely comment on other people's works. I did notice @berniesanders flip image yesterday which led me to the flag wars you're talking about. I do believe that the higher-ups will do something about this if they see any threat but like what you've shared, sometimes good can come out of the chaos.

That's a great mantra to follow for sure...especially for newer members.

That depends on what you mean by higher-ups. A common misconception is that there is a centralized authority on the Steem blockchain. That isn't the case. The only "higher-up" with the ability to do anything with regard to voting abuse are those with high stakes in Steem, the whales.

Thanks for your comment.

@Haejin provides popular content (hence his upvotes, and share of reward pool), while @berniesanders provides nothing and is a parasite. @berniesanders is furious because he's receiving less money from his various bots which newbs are suckered into paying for.
