Surprise AMA
Where I am at the internet upload speed is about 1mb, so livestreaming on 3speak won't work. I am getting a lot of redundant DMs so figure it's best to just do a AMA, I am sure there will be lots of Tron questions.
I don't know everything going on behind the scenes, but will lend my thoughts. If you have any questions ask below.
If you were a Steem witness, would you be:
a) happy at the news
b) sad that you are unlikely to be picking up 10,000 SP/month for much longer
As a Steem witness I would be happy that the price is up. I would be curious of the meaning of "token swap."
@theycallmedan What do you think will happen with powered up steem? Will it transfer to a similar Tron token, or something else?
I think Steem will stay powered up if the owner of that Steem chooses so.
As per the mentioned token swap, I am still waiting on their meaning of "token swap."
Dan, youre an investor. I know you dont have the emotional connection to all this as the rest of us do and i would never expect you to.
That being said...
You, me, everyone is about to get shafted by Ned and Justin.
Not only is Steemit being sold, which would have been fine but Justin is trying to kill Steem and mirror it on TRON as probably a TRC20 token.
That will split the community and kill the web3.0 potential Steem has shown... Many of the witnesses that believe that you cant buy a blockchain will leave, many of us smaller factors in the story will leave as well and your investment in a 4 year old token will, honestly, go to shit.
What we will have on tron will not be Steem and we all know it. It wont have the same performance, it wont have the same community, it wont have the same potential, it wont have the same future...
SteemTron will be like putting lipstick on a picture of a pig.
Take this and fix shit, before its too late....
All that Steemit inc ever was is a few devs that knew the code. Remember that.
The code: https://github.com/SteemClassic
Holy crap. It's already been forked?!
Github forked (copy of the code) in case they delete it. Not a chain fork
I see. Thank you!
Are you getting any sort of cut from this sale?
No. I'm not employed by Steemit INC and have never been paid a penny by them or anyone else related to Steem/Steemit/Tron.
Thanks for clarification sir.
good question. Curious where all the funds have gone. Was it ONLY useless Ned getting the millions or was it spread out through the upper echelon?
What do you think about this ninja shit News from Steemit inc?
SMTs are ready (testnet)
Communities too (testnet)
= Steem 2.0 without Steemit inc? with all cool Stuff we want since years.
Or SMT are buggy and the sellout is the Plan to surrive?
I think we as a community are a bit blindsided with one vague blog post to explain things to us. A blog post that was translated into English. Does the token swap mean to them what it means to us.. maybe not.
I have pieced up intel and a gut feeling but I rather not say what I exactly think on the future path until I get some more info, I don't want to mislead people with possible wrong info.
sure we see tomorrow i think.
Token Swap can be difficult with the Steem on exchanges too ( if this like i understand it)
i would just like to say, as an non english speaker (it is my third language), if you have few multi million companies you should have a person that speaks english.
maybe token swap means steemit incs token to tron account :)
Will you try to keep Steem as one chain and refuse potential migration to Tron chain?
I view Steem moving to Tron, if that is even technically possible, will be up to our elected witnesses.
I will say, if they try to "kill" Steem and force it onto Tron, I will see that as a hostile takeover, and will not support such a move.
Thank You!
That's good to hear. I hope the rest of the witnesses feel the same. If there was an airdrop and some kind of interoperability, I'd prefer that to a swap.
If you only had 1000 dollars to invest right now into crypto, would you buy Steem?
Yes, but I would BTD.
It is on the way.
Concur. Think we are in the P of a P&D. Tbh
what is BTD? (man I feel stupid asking that)
Buy the Dip I'm assuming also known as BTFD or buy the Fudging dip
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh now I feel even more stupid. Thanks @gniksivart

Hey Dan, can you honestly express your feelings about this whole TRON thing right now? % excited vs % worried... I know a lot is yet to be clarified but I wonder how you, one of the biggest Steem investors, feel about it right now. Thanks.
100% excited
10% anxious
I believe Steemians will be in for a pleasant surprise.
It this also a right time to power up Steem, or should Steemians wait for clarifications?
Thanks Dan.
Always do what is best for you. More information never hurt anyone!
Sorry Dan, it's normal to be afraid. I'm scared. What will happen to us little fishes if you bigger ones are wobbling around?
I’m not wobbling around. Just bought more Steem. ;)
You know I love you, right? Thanks. :) <3
The future of Steem without Steemit.
Better off as we can't rest on Steemit to make the improvements for us and have to do it ourselves?
Doomed because we don't have enough developers to keep improving?
Obviously a middle of the road response is welcome as well.
I believe this move will show the strength of the Steem community. Nothing will be done that will harm Steem, if so the community will act accordingly.
