If tommorow he'd say that he is tired of eos and would like to start from scratch another time our crazy markets would give him another set of billions to do so. He has this path of less resistance, he uses it regularly.

Hello @inertia, where can I connect with you to chat about radiator?

Everybody knows Dan and knowing this should get us thinking.Mostly when I think of STEEMIT I think of the people putting the work here and less to the technical aspects of it. In a very big measure, I got the grip of what is based on and how it is working, but that's just about it. In rest, people interaction and putting and sharing content was my most objective.
What I believe in is that with time the STEEMIT will get more personal and user based content it will start providing more revenue rather than the ones based on news. The core of the system should be PERSONAL CONNECTION and only when this will value more than it will bump to the next level.

Unfixable due to fundamental transaction structure. Would require a pitch fork.  Also unfixable from a distribution perspective.

I can see issues with steem. In fact few. It becomes less about content and more about what you think will be popular.

STEMM is fixable. Just make an isolated pool for flagging. Now no one uses it, cause it gives almost nothing.

@inertia is it the only solution to leave the Steemit?
one should solve his own problems, we are new here and these are not very discouraging examples before us.

Sometimes people do not communicate properly or consider how others will interpret their message.  From what I am listening to on this video -  People did not want to progress and move forward with him.   They liked thins as they were. Perhaps he did not want to invest the emotion to this and so it was unfix able for him but not for someone else.

EOS baby... Lets go!... Dan is a genius.

Man I wanted to hear what he had to say, but just looking at how long it is I quit trying to. Personally I think @dan is the type of person who can't stick to one thing, he has to be continually evolving, so I think he will sooner or later ditch EOS and start something else. I am like that so I don't really see anything wrong in it, but I do know his leaving Steem sent out a bad message.

I'm looking forward to watching the EOS price when it launches!

in this era of tech, when what happened between Dan and Ned sprung up new and good idea. i never  listened to Dan larimer before

Well I think if I were to interpret him it would be that he tries to say that currently the influx of new users in steemit would be the reason why steem will have problem being fixed, I'm I a little correct? 

Are we in for a rough ride? @inertia?

Interesting thoughts. I wouldn't fully agree with that though.

It was interesting to hear Dan talking about what brought him into the blockchain space in the first place (Ron Paul and all that), I think this has allot to do with why he left Steem and what he meant when he said it was broken. I always suspected that Dan was actively involved in making Steemit have a very certain political stance up to that point ( namely alt.right ). I imagine that he and Ned did not see things eye to eye in this respect and this is why he left. I don’t think he meant to say that Steem is broken from a technological perspective.

Also, Dan is clearly a novelty seeker who loses interest in projects once they reach a certain maturity level. So maybe his decision to move along is actually a proof of maturity for Steem. Things have changed a lot here since he left ( Gosh, it is hard to believe that that was only less than a year ago ), and I think it was only for the better.

Having said all that, I also have to say think Dan Larimer is one of the most brilliant minds of the blockchain arena today. I trust his calls and I believe EOS is going to be a great success.

Yes go eos

He has had more then enough information and input on the things that need fixing, He didnt have the want to fix the issues because the real issues wernt the problem to him. He Was one of the biggest supporters of censorship on this site (and he openly says it in his early posts) and had no want to stop the stuff the majority of users (not whales) talked about.

He tried to hide the flagging problem by changing the number of flags to dots and by making it so you couldnt see the full list of upvoters and flaggers unless you go to a differnt fromt side interface. 

"It is broken to him" because he didnt end up with an echo chamber like he openly said he wanted in the firs couple months of steemit.

I wouldnt be supprised if eos ends up the same, same group of whales getting into it before the public has access and the moment the users of the block chain disagree with anything dan wants he either runs them off or throws his hands up in the air and yells fuck it while he runs around attacking anyone that "isnt on his side".

The less people in the upper 10% power range acting like they are policing steemit for good the better, they arent doing it for good they are doing it to make steemit how they want regardless of what everyone else thinks.

IMO atleast.
lol

"steem was an exercise in massively decentralized budget allocation"
Yes ! this is groundbreaking today still !

First time I have ever been able to listen to a full "Dan Interview".  He is getting much better at communication.

I heard what he said as:  "It was broken to me".  

He had new things he wanted to achieve and we didn't understand why..  He couldn't drag us, so he flew...

life is a risk !!! nothing ventured, nothing gained
