RE: Fast Forward Future: Are we there yet?
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I think it is far to late for governments or single company to try and shut decentralized block chains down. I know Bill gates tried it with git-hub, by taking control of it and restricting people from using it. After those published and very public attempts, git-lab was created. So the writing was on the wall for attempted control and that writing was over written by the users of block chain technology.
Communities, as has been shown with the steem/hive split are not going to allow themselves to be controlled by one group or one organization. Hive is progressing along pretty well, it will not be long before we transition from community to a society.

I am hoping that increasingly, Hive will become an example of what else blockchains can do and the steem/ hive split an example of what a blockchain community can do. We are among the most active chain by user in the world and have the most diversity of usage - and are kicking ass. If only people knew.
I think people will learn, I wish the learning curve was not so steep, and at times I wish things would slow down, but I think Hive is doing good. I like how the two hard forks have been done, how much thought has gone into them and how they have been looking forward to ward the future than toward the past or the present.
I also like that they have had a lot of community input and also added some additional features that weren't in the first iteration.
