In the meantime Dan is building scalable blockchains with governance systems that are years ahead of any "competition" while others cling to the past and are showing their envy with FUD, no, FUD is not the right word, BS is!

Governance = centralized clusterfuck, due to the political-economics science of voting. Thus not Internet scalable. Transaction volume scaling is not the only facet of scaling.

Here is a key example wherein a whale can cause censorship:

UPDATE: We have @chryspano a whale-dolphin at Steem abusing the downvoting feature to censor the images and my entire blog post at Steem is now hidden (so much for the power of decentralization when the blockchain is overlorded by whales). Note the busy.org rendering of my blog page is still intact as that site apparently doesnt enforce Steemits whale-controlled censorship.

The entire fucking point of the game theory of Bitcoin is to be immutable and remove governance. Now we await to see if the SegWit pay to anyone booty will be stolen with a long-range chain attack restoring the immutability of Bitcoin, or if the game theory failed.

What is the use case of the new Dtube app for Steem is the whales can censor content the same as Youtube is?

What is the use case of the new Dtube app for Steem if the whales can censor content the same as Youtube is? Of course someone else could create an app for Steem which does not rank content by voting (or at least does not allow content to be entirely hidden by whale voting), but the whales ultimately are in control of the block producers who decide what goes on the blockchain, so there comes a time when the government pressures them the same as they are pressuring Youtube to censor data.

With a non-permissionless system of block producers, those with the most stake can not be replaced. Who is going to give away their stake.

There are fundamental insoluble issues with proof-of-stake.

I'm would like to read your white paper - sounds super interesting. Can you link me to it? (Note: sorry if it's already been shared upthread or elsewhere. I'm a newb and probably missed whatever original post you made sharing the Github link or other posting location of the paper)

Considering your derogatory comment to me upthread, do you think I am stupid enough to release my technology before it is launched so that EOS or Vitalik can copy it.

EDIT: I note you asked me about Urbit after that, so perhaps that prior comment was just joke. In any case, decided not to release the technology until after launch. Were not preselling tokens to speculators and are not attempting to build a community of speculators to give us some speculation and capitalization market advantage, thus we must keep our technology closed until we have gained an insurmountable adoption advantage. Then we will open source everything. Users do not care about the technological details any way. Apologies if I am not really in the mood either for pleasantries in this thread.
