I don't see a down side.

More opportunities are going to open up for people.

There is an opportunity to finally get rid of the ninja mine effects, to get rid of the constant FUD that having a shadow over us all the time by the name of Steemit Inc with its stake caused.

Nothing bad.

What sucks is the fact that they are selling us off in that "package deal", as if we the people are a product with a price tag.

Says more about them than anything else.

Let's say "disappointed" in the lack of respect and the fact that they couldn't do anything transparently, openly and publicly, so as to ensure we are all somewhat kept in the loop.

Sorry, that is not what the ideals of blockchain technology are about.

They literally just killed any ounce of respect that any blockchain and crypto enthusiast could have had for them.

The just proved that in their eyes we were nothing but pieces of meat and they are the butcher selling it at the markets.

So, that is the downside, the idea that Steem was, is by no means dead, as many of us still believe in it. While those that agree with the sale of us and our data to the best bidder is OK, well, I dare say that they sure have another thing coming their way.

It seems simpler than that to me. There is a control freak that thought to take all of his toys and go home when his creation grew out of his control and a snake oil salesman that hung on to a winning loto ticket, like a dog to an ankle, awaiting the pay off.

A close scrutiny of parents does not often bode well. Their offspring should be our only concern.

It's only business.

STEEM On!!!
