>When Communities launch on Steem, for the first time *ever* people will be able to create communities, on the internet, *that they own.* I'm curious to see how this plays out in reality. Will there be a rush to essentially "squat" popular communities/categories/tags? If so, what can anyone do about a completely mismanaged category/tag? For instance, what if someone were to "buy" the *cryptocurrency* and *cryptos* communities and then proceeded to post their own referral links and shill their favorite tokens, then "moderated" everyone else's posts to make them invisible or sent them to the bottom of the "hot" or "trending" lists? What do you do then, other than create a new community like *"real-cryptos-community,"* or some stupid crap? Will there be any built-in protection to mitigate or prevent the above?

# Donald Trump Hopefully, competition can push people regardless. Maybe somebody created DonaldTrump on Twitter. So, maybe the real Trump created @RealDonaldTrump, for example. Well, so, with your example, if somebody creates a cryptocurrencies community and mutes people talking about Monero, then maybe, through the art of supply and demand, they could try to band together to create their own cryptocurrencies community. # # Competition Then, they could make videos and talk about how retarded that other community was. That creates peer pressure on the original community. Meaning that either that guy reforms his ways or his members may migrate to the new community. That's competition. That's supply and demand. I hope things like that happens as a mechanism that seeks after balance or competition.

Naming is a bit of a "of 3 pick 2" situation. [Zooko's Triangle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zooko%27s_triangle) illustrates it well ("security" can be swapped with "complexity"). The current approach is that every community will start with just an id number, so there's nothing to squat. A naming system will most likely be a 2nd layer solution.| author | roadscape |
