At the moment, the Golos passes through the same "childhood illnesses" that the Steemit once had. As on the Golos, there some Steemit services initially decided that they did not have enough money and started charging for services that were previously free of charge and which people are already accustomed to. I think everyone remembers as it all ended up - they decay, and then completely disappeared, because there were alternative free services. Something like this is happening on Golos.
Then the largest investors could not agree on how to divide the pool of payments and they began the "flag wars", which almost led to the collapse of the entire resource. Such an attack on the Golos, too, was and we have experienced it.
Then the whales realized that against the same whales, it's pointless to fight, because it will lead to mutual destruction, and they decided to start cutting smaller hamsters by the predatory system of auction bid-bots (this attack on the Golos is just beginning, and I very much hope that she will die in rudiment, never will born, because I think buying a vote is not a gambling bet in the casino, but an investment and a mutually beneficial agreement that should bring an equal profit to both parties involved). At the Steemit, this led to the fact that small users with empty pockets and bright heads, just crack these bid bots and transfer all money from them to their accounts on the principle of "robbing loot." All this, I once wrote to my blog on Steemit https://steemit.com/steem/@elizzium2018/cry-of-the-soul-quality-content-or-how-we-are-turned-into-slaves
it's very unpleasant for me that the bruises and abrasions that Steemit received in the process of becoming, did not give any useful lesson for Golos.
The old adage says that everyone learns from mistakes, but smart people learn from other people's mistakes, and fools - learn from own mistakes.
