It doesn't end there though, they have designed a system where they have so much voting power compared to everyone else that they decide where the pool's money is being allocated, so if they want to pay themselves and their buddies they can do it just by a mouse click.
They can also create sockpuppets account and vote for themselves.It's like a fucking cartel, they are the first crypto mafia.
They also get to decide what goes on the front page so obviously they chose to upvote boobs and steem praise, there is nothing better than vagina to prop up a massive bubble.
This is the point of all. If people will want this power for themselves they will need to buy it. If they will then Steemit will be a success.
Is this power so tempting that people will put millions of $ in it? who will want this? Maybe a tobacco industry?
