This new tokens of good person, as soon as I knew it seemed an incredible idea, and I hope it is done quickly, because on the platform of steemit, there are many spammers, and it is something unpleasant, because it usually feels like an insult to the work of the the rest. Many people claim, that for lack of time they do spam and that makes me annoyed. So if I do not have anything to publish, or I do not have better time, I do not do it and that's it. That's why I think that the white list is an excellent idea. I hope your assumptions are true friend, because I know you always speak with base, and having the information at hand. Keep working on your game, I'm sure it's wonderful, you'll soon be successful.

thanks! you're a great supporter. i just try to make sense out of all this chaos. i might even be entirely wrong. but clearly we're gonna be see a lotta changes when crypto starts being used by ordinary people in their daily lives. it's gonna be a different world.

the whitelist can be good if it's not centralized by steemit inc. that's my only concern at this point. if there's other SMTs that can create a bigger pool it should be fine. i hope it happens.

Your right! spammers are annoying.
There are many abusers and so the first idea is just to keep a list of them. But the list gets so long! ;-)

Have you heard of the Chrome browser add-on called Steem Plus?
I use it, and it's really great for helping me identify spammers.

I just wanted to point out that Steem Plus is keeping a "community polling" + "heuristic analysis" database and it seems to work fairly well. You will actually see in your comments to your post, which commenters are probably spammers..

Really you are too good man and you alwys support to achieve more rewards.
Thanks alot.
@oliviaalexa

i try to be a good person myself but mostly i would be motivated by incentives and rewards.
but thanks 😃 you're a good supporter i appreciate it.

Thank you so much dear.
Hope you are alwys stay with us.😙

thanks i hope steemit would last! and go mainstream 😃

wonderful amazing topic my friend @roundbeargames keep it up.... your work always as usual great.....

thanks! every once in awhile i'd do topics other than my game. but i should get back now 😃

Excellent iformacion, thanks for sharing, I really do not know much about this, but I'll be sure to look into it and research a little more.
Greetings friend

greetings! and thanks.
it's mostly my opinions and concerns. so you should definitely google it yourself and decide what you wanna do.

One thing though. as far as I have understood, EOS token is working like steem, providing bandwidht from network. That means that any business launching a token on the block-chain needs to hodl steem power or EOS. This could make a situation where the price for the more popular platform could become too expensive.

well eos token swap hasn't happened yet, so we'll have to see how that plays out.

eos will have a much more general utility compared to steem, which is specific to steemit.com as in social media. eos is more like an os that allows developers to build dapps on top of it. theoretically somebody can create the exact same version of steemit on eos, but with a few upgrades.

i agree with you that if (a giant if) SMTs tokenize the world there will be incentives to hold steem power for the bandwidth. that incentive will be bigger than anything we've seen before, including bitcoin. but again, a giant if.

i'm not sure if i understand what you mean by platforms becoming too expensive. you mean coins like steem becoming too expensive? that's a good thing for the investors ain't it? 😃

WHEN EOS WAS ANNOUNCED, I just assumed STEEM would move to the "new more distributed EOS blockchain" and just set up shop on it? But of course, that would negate 51% CONTROL.. so there is no motivation for 1 person to do that ;-) ....

on the other hand there's people who are motivated to never allow anybody to have 51% including themselves. i think it's why so many people fell in love with blockchains in the first place. it's a huge motivation for those kinda devs to build stuff on top of eos.

I mean that the coin supply is limited and huge increase in demand for EOS could lead steem to be more appealing for devs because of starting costs and other way around.

if eos demand rises while steem price stays the same, that means buyers (including devs) have already picked eos as the better alternative. or more 'appealing'.
but again, bp voting and eos token swap hasn't happened yet. so who knows?

what's certain is that devs will not switch over simply because a coin might be cheaper. not unless it's undervalued. besides, as a developer, you don't necessarily have to own the coins to start developing.

You prob right. One thing to remember though is that whole crypto thing is not yet that widely adopted, and I believe we will have multiple of these different platform and so on. Once the adoption happens, I doubt anything is just going to die away with a snap of fingers, instead all could get a nice share. In addittion steem is still very powerful as currency and thus is not too likely to disappear in some time.

you're right. nothing will die in a snap. but consider what happened to yahoo, tumblr, snapchat, and a shit ton of other platforms that started losing its base once they were deemed uncool. the speed is scary. and it's only getting faster.

"once they were deemed uncoooooolll"
OUCH that hurts!

i'd hate to use the word UNCOOL. but there really is no other way to describe it. tumblr was fucked the day yahoo came in.

we see it time and time again. platforms lose their cool and never get it back. for steemit, a whitelist run by steemit inc could be that catalyst.

i mean verifications and behavior guidelines? yahoo is cooler than that.

I agree there will be multiple platforms. As a Communities Builder, I can reside on several platforms and just automate posting to all of them at the same time...

i don't have much of a choice. i have to upload on all platforms that give me the best chance. right now i still love steemit a lot. i'm too late on yt or fb or whatever. but there might be a day where i start posting on 2~3 new platforms that reward me in crypto. eventually most will die out and 1 will come out on top.

this is one way for users to escape the unjust system on steemit, the quality content will get more recognition whether it comes from a whale or a minnow. Do not you have confidence in this?

i want quality content. yes. but i don't want steemit inc defining what 'quality content' is for me.
it's something very subjective and not everyone will agree on what a quality content exactly is. which is why i'd much rather prefer to have freedom in the marketplace and see what comes out on top.

but yes i see what you mean by 'the unjust system on steemit'. right now being on top/front pages on steemit means you paid for it. or you're a whale. but that's also part of the strategy that people might take to gain exposure. when you say 'quality' the scope is so large it entails everything regarding the post including the unjustness you described. simply, it's competition.

i have confidence that if you give the people freedom to figure it out, they will. @ned says there will be many SMTs. that does not necessarily mean minnows like you and i would have more chance. it could mean completely the opposite. assuming that GPT will not be the only dominant token, we have no idea how SMTs would shape the future of steemit. they'll only follow market principles.

but if you are certain that GPT will be the main currency and steemit inc will start supporting minnows more, you have a centralized system. that means censorship. it'll be like government officials. and we both know how they work. if you give any human beings enough power (no matter how smart, clean, ethical they are), you will corrupt the entire system, including quality content.

it is little complicated everything they want to implement, maybe there will be a token dtube, token steepshot, token busy, it bothers me is that in the trends it is always the same shit as always and the same trash is difficult to find good content in the trends should be more balanced but you are right there is a possibility that the system is corrupt, it is difficult for everything to go well as we expect but the only way to know is to try, I only hope that if something goes wrong with this new project, we will take the correct measures and not be as you say you act as our governments, I have been reading several things on these issues is talking a lot https://steemit.com/eosio/@cryptoctopus/can-eos-disrupt-steem

you're right. there may be other tokens like dtube, steepshot, busy, etc.

but no token from within the community will be able to compete against GPT. in order for any token to be meaningful it must have the reward pool that matches the current one, or the hypothetical one described in the diagram.

you'll need an outside force that has enough influence (preferably more than steemit inc or @ned or @dan) to create a token that has any value, to create a big enough pool that people are willing to trade that token.

i dunno what makes @ned so confident that many SMTs will flourish. obviously i dunno what he knows. but a 1000 different SMTs is pointless when GPT is the dominant one and every other token value is close to 0.

for eos, the market is telling us people are absolutely interested. whether it's speculation, belief in @dan or eos dpos, etc, a significant number of people decided they're gonna trust it with their money. and nobody even knows whether the token swaps is guaranteed or not. that level of impact has never been shown in steem prices. more people already know about eos than steem. and their expectations are high.

but again, steem is my biggest investment. and most of the time what everybody says will happen never actually happens. so let's see.

I'm very curious to know when we will be able to see this development online. we need patience, SMT will be the turning point in steem. everyone is waiting for this launch, so let's hope for the best

it should be this year. i think last year ned said Q2 so it should be close. but there could be delays so we can't be sure. SMTs will be the turning point depending on who's going to be implementing it. if there's a bunch of SMTs that nobody cares about then steemit is fucked. i hope that's not the case. @ned seems pretty confident that there'll be many SMTs. we'll wait and see.

I saw yesterday an SMT testnet has been announced to start this week or next?
@ned has stated that "big players" have approached about something like an SMT.
But these are Big Centralized players he wants to cater and court, and so that may be the downfall of all this.

I was rather looking at OTHER USE CASES for SMT and am sad they are not more the focus of SMT in many ways. ICOs mostly; but EOS could make ICOs obsolete now..
WOW the world changes quickly! (EOSdac)

i've been always wondering what made him so sure that 'there will be many SMTs'.

but i agree with you. i feel like @ned wants a little too much centralization and it could be a big turn off for those players. AND for the users.

eos still has to go through bp voting and i think it's likely that there will be MASSIVE MASSIVE confusion in june. so i dunno. but certainly eos has the potential to wipe out a lotta things.

With the contribution of all steem can go much further than the moon, we must give the best of all so that steem remains the best

yes. right now steemit is the coolest social platform. but nothing is guaranteed. let's hope it stays that way and we all go 😃

Undoubtedly steemit is an incredible platform, let's hope and continue doing it, happy night friend

hopefully it'll stay. and good night!

Nice Topic . Well said @roundbeargames . Thanks for share this post .Upvote and resteemed it . Thanks

thanks for coming! much appreciated 👍

Incredible publication good topic my dear friend, it is of interest, these two platforms are going to give everything for the whole to see who is the best, we have to contribute the best of us so that steen reaches the maximum

thank you. i've mentioned eos as one example but there will be countless more. truly the wild west right now. let's see what happens 😃

amigo lo felicito a lo que pude entender muy buen trabajo.hablo español, muy poco ingles y con ayuda de traductor. gracias por su ayuda se lo agradezco .saludos

amigo don't worry because we have google translate. thanks for coming!
