I've never seen one of the steemit guys advising anyone to buy in. The OP doesn't even contain links to exchanges. Instead, it promotes the free signups.

Your definition of a fair currency distribution wasn't met, you made that point clear. It would've been possible to do so without showing that you have no idea about what steem is in the first place.
Let me highlight this gem, to add to historical records Kiss

you might want to migrate to an official steem forum.

We 2 have nothing to talk about if this distribution met your standards of fairness. Wink

First off, I generally don't believe in fair currency distribution at all. It always requires monetary investments, which excludes great parts of the people.
The way steem works will forever favor those that were in earlier. Apart from that, anyone can get in anytime in various ways, and the main way doesn't require any technical knowledge or financial investment.

I don't have a problem with the situation that the guys who spent months of their time to create something others can profit from for an indefinite time to come secured their part of the cake in some way.
I'm also not afraid of dumping, because I trust them more to care about the future of their project, than ICO investors or miners which just jump on the most profitable train all the time.

Of course it is an experiment, but a well thought-out one imo. You have to leave behind a lot of the bct-way of thinking though. Steem is not primarily a currency. After reading the whitepaper a lot of things might get more clear.

Take a look at BTS for a second. Won't adress rest of the points, your arguments are very far from making sense.
