I've been checking Cent out.

Here's something cool I found in a post on there. You might be interested. Looks like people are selling digital art for eth and making a buck.

I use the status app from the Android store to interact with Cent, a dapp running on eth. I'm having fun.

I hope you are well. 😎

The whales don't realize that the creatives are the lifeblood of this thing, and essential to the public wanting to give a damn about it. Greed sucks.

We'll upvote your post the best we can to counter any flags it receives, but obviously someone with a huge stake, most of whose upvotes go to their own shitposts, can (and apparently will) have a larger negative influence on this post and the platform as a whole than we can overcome.

Little men, big guns, pointed at our heads,
At our, at our heads.

He's free to abuse his free speech if he wishes, but this platform is dead in beta because of shit like that.

ol·i·gar·chy
/ˈäləˌɡärkē/Submit
noun
a small group of people having control of a country, organization, or institution.

like all gvt, power corrupts.. absolute power corrupts absolutely.

To me, every argument  have a different story to tell. There is more right or less right, depending on one's perspective.  On Steemit platform, it is ideally a place for free speech, and people get to air their viewpoints, and readers decides who they'd believe more - base on facts/fake news  presented.

afterall, a blockchain social network is supposedly to prevent censorship right? Like how facebook would censor certain types of content they deemed inappropriate.

I think the blockchain consensus idea must come into play, and decides what content is good or bad.  not the rich and powerful decide..

I’m so so sorry to hear this and also beyond annoyed that this continues to happen. 

I 100% agree with you thang Steemit no longer holds the same welcoming atmosphere that it did when I initially joined (which was quite late to be honest).  I was hopeful that Steem was changing the face of commerce, but it’s not the case when it’s so easily monopolized.

It’s unfortunate to see that left to our own devices, we will find a way to create a power struggle and hierarchical system.  I was hopeful that Steem would be a nice break from “the haves and the have-nots” narrative, especially when we are enabled to use this great tool for good and to build one another up.

I hope @nathen007 will be able to return with full force in time. And I so respect your bravery and willingness to stand up and call out those abusing their position on Steemit. Power to you, @tygertyger!

capital accumulation. steemit and crypto all maintain the same distribution of wealth that exists in capitalism, cause its not removed from it. It's an expression of it.
