1.) Impossible when every 2-3 months someone drops 50 Million USD to the market cap overnight (24.9.2017 5M, -29.9.2017 total: 60.1M USD +) (check coinmarketcap). We need that someone, otherwise Steem would be long time gone. Steem needs inflation to survive all horrific hard work having now with community developers and upcoming releases.
2.) It's not. Its less complicated than opening new Gmail account, it's just laziness and psychology of people to NOT READ instructions during that process and make 6-10 clicks. I'm sorry it would be insane reducing steps and letting bots and Bevs&Butt users to join network even more easy collecting something that other are earning for months.
3.) It has been built as total transparency (publicly accessible ANY information from the community done by community itself - nobody force anyone to post anything, so... ) with proof of block where content can't be edited or deleted (lost) after 7 days (payout). Whats the privacy then about ?
4.) Against 2nd point - Make one more step. That all new accounts cannot use wallet first 30 days internally on Steem (even though they can collect payouts). You will see how bots and hazard of community will be cleaned instantly.
- Charge for registration of the account symbolic 1 STEEM in USD and signup with any exchange to process accounts.
That can collect more income for witness and full node production, development of a steem and increase security against malicious registrations against steem blockchain.
I completely agree we have a problem, but points you are making are not even biggest issue at the moment. Except 4th point, which is completely ok.
