ADSactly - Steem Witness
STEEM witness is a cool name for someone running a server of STEEM blockchain. There are 127 of them at this moment, with top 20 machines doing most of the job and owners having the most influence on the future of Steem. The positions of witnesses are chosen by the amount and strength of your votes.
The more STEEM POWER you have, the more will your vote count. One can picture it as parliament elections, except votes don't count equal. It is fair because the people who invested more in the platform have a greater say in choosing the witnesses.
This voting system also denies classical principles of democracy where a vote of a heroin addict counts the same as a vote of a Nobel prize-winning professor but that dubious fact is outside of the scope of this article. The witness system is a proof of decentralized blockchain where no Zuckerberg or Gates or Buffet or whomever else with a golden key can rule the place in a monarchical style.**

Every witness in the STEEM ecosystem usually writes a 'witness proposal' and posts it on the witness profile. The witness proposal is a statement of intentions and display of overall direction toward which a witness will steer in the future. Why is this important, you may ask? Well, because the witnesses have joined power to 'tweak' the blockchain and if the majority of them agrees a 'hardfork' is a go. Hardfork is STEEM blockchain update and, immediately as implemented, it defines the future of us all. So, yes, just like in real life, you should be aware and vigilant as to who your witnesses are and what they stand for. An example of a witness proposal of ADSactly Society's witness is here:
The latest idea for the STEEM, discussed by the witnesses was to forcibly make 1SBD worth 1USD (called pegging one SBD to one USD). @adsactly-witness strongly stands against pegging and sees this idea as an extremely dangerous one for the future of the platform. If this idea passes in some scenario, your SBD income will decrease 4-5 times in value. We are against it and ask you to help us watch for your best interest.
Please, read ADSactly Society's Witness Proposal in detail and let us know if our vision follows yours. Let us know if you chose us as your representative in the witness parliament.If you have any doubts as to vote for our witness, please know that our Society invested a lot of money in the STEEM and be sure that we will make sure STEEM cryptocurrency, as well as the entire ecosystem, heads in the best possible direction.
