A few days after the purchase and sale of steem, I have read many posts in which the departure of many participants from the ecosystem is announced, this because the new or the new owner of this platform is handling a new policy of WITNESSES; In my most productive opinion and from the point of view of a small entity within steem (due to the low healing power) I believe that the implantation of new witnesses that come from the new owner is only a new centralization.
Some should note that at the beginning of this new centralization there were only 20 witnesses ... who were implanted by the new administration, however today there are more than 25 new witnesses and they do not have sufficient healing power.
I know that my words can hurt feelings, however from my productive opinion, this new centralization of witnesses and therefore of healing could allow us to rethink two well-defined things:
The first: That those who do not have enough voting power, we are much more participatory and therefore the posts are more visited, more viewed and voted.
The second: it is well known that many groups organized themselves in a way that used the power to vote to designate a witness, that although it is true is an allowed topic within the ecosystem, in most cases these witnesses only used their power to voting and pumping members of the group, so this translated into a disgraceful and undemocratic act for those who could not or were not given the opportunity to belong to any of those groups, so implementing new witnesses gives us greater democracy and better opportunities to climb within the ecosystem.
Because of the above, and despite what some people think of this ecosystem, I do agree with the new centralization that provides better opportunities uniformly for each member of the steemit community.
