You thought seeing new witnesses even if they're real accounts popup in the top 20, In just a few days/hours, with only a hundred votes wouldn't shock anyone? Do you really think by this move to give any add value to STEEM or break it even more? ![Screenshot from 20200318 051551.png](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/french-tech/rvG2pUM9-Screenshot20from202020-03-182005-15-51.png) Do you think you are liberators, representatives of a new vision of democracy that I wouldn't have seen? I don't think so... ### The REAL value If we draw a parallel with a company (I apologize in advance to anyone who isn't happy with this comparison), then ***the people who give value to STEEM are the Steemians and nobody else!*** - The Steemians make the content (make the products in a company) on STEEM - The Steemians come to read the content (are the customers in a company) on STEEM - Investors like you are just the Bank in the corporate world. - Developper, Witnesses... are the IT department of a company If I take the Steemians (who make the products and are the customers) out of the equation, do you think the company will still be valuable? ***No!*** If Apple, for example, had no customers and no products to sell, do you think the company would be worth $1,000 billion? ***No, that would simply be a shell company without value!*** ### A path WITHOUT Steemians The path you're drawing will be ***without any Steemians, old or new!*** For the simple reason that you're destroying, each passing day, more and more of STEEM's attraction. **If STEEM is not a true democratic and decentralized system where investors respect their role and where decisions cannot be taken without the Steemians, then what is the point of using STEEM?** Do you honestly think that without these 2 indispensable factors you can compete with traditional social networks that are years ahead, faster, with horizontal scalability, easier to use... and to top it all off with more readers? ***It's a Joke?*** ***I hope and wish @blocktrades success with HIVE where you failed miserably!*** ![divider-french-tech.png](https://ipfs.busy.org/ipfs/QmSHMYLCn5xXocCdvK5JfRyhqMxLW782e4uboifqeEsRJ8) **[ Resteem | Comment ]** THANKS :) @french-tech ![divider-french-tech.png](https://ipfs.busy.org/ipfs/QmSHMYLCn5xXocCdvK5JfRyhqMxLW782e4uboifqeEsRJ8)
