Today I saw the latest news release by the Binance Team and I sincerely disapprove of the mechanicms and tactics binance is trying to enforce on investors. The idea of blockchain technology is a community driven ecosystem where financial inclusion for all is guaranteed and the presence of equity in wealth distribution and rights. Today the Binance team is strategically straying away from this Ideology by changing the mechanism of purchase on the binance launch pad for start-ups from the first come first serve to an allocation model based on the BNB token held. Now a minimum of 100 bnb which is equivalent to 1600 dollars is literally required to participate in the IEO process on binance launchpad.
This mechanisms greatly deviates from what satoshi had In mind when he pioneered blockchain technology and in my opinion should not be entertained at all. The poor who wish to tap into the potentials of burdening projects will be deprived, the rich will keep getting richer while the poor gets poorer.
Why don't we take a minute to properly examine this initiative binance is kick-starting which i am certain will be emulated by other exchange in the nearest future? Isn't these the same shortfalls of traditional funding models?. I say we take a United stand against this discriminatory and deviant act binance is kick-starting before it completely deteriorate the blockchain community..

Business is business i understand that, Binance is here to make money, make investors money (to the best of their abilities and create an ecosystem for all in crypto; exposing crypto to a wider audience. But, the foundations of what crypto and blockchain represent, is everything Binance is diverging away from.
Red-flags for the meaning of crypto, a positive step-forward for bigger money and larger awareness. Shortsightedness for the short-term, damaging for the future of crypto entirely. Binance is probably the biggest threat to the entire crypto-sphere, with all ideologies/foundations this industry was founded on; but, this all would of happened eventually, it's in our nature to seek order by delegating power to other people to make the decisions for themselves.
Competition has/will follow suite and mimic the behaviors/actions that Binance is doing, to stay competitive.
