Why on Earth would your stake be invalidated?

Wouldn't it be rather obvious for them to fork away with a new token once they have acquired Steemit Inc?

Invalidated is probably the wrong word.

I'm imagine the scenario where Justin would acquire STINC stake and use it however he pleases. Which is fair because it'd be his stake then. But, may not be as great when he could control consensus through witnesses. I suppose that could go either way.

Of course, there's also the whole "scare" of Chinese government coming in from the shadows and stuff.

From a more practical point of view, I guess I don't really care if it means my stake is worth more than it is currently.

There is one thing I'm a bit puzzled...why delist STEEM from Poloniex if he were to acquire STINC or Steemit.com?

Steem is a community and can fork away from a hostile takeover. That's why I don't think this rumor is true.

It doesn't matter if the community can fork away.

Rebuilding the connections with exchanges, etc. is not instantaneous.

Steem can't fork away.
We had this topic many times in steem's history, but we hadn't a single community fork.
Only competent and intelligent users leaving in masses..

Steem can fork away though, we didn't in the past because there was no reason for it.

Zumindest kein Grund der groß genug war um so etwas wie einen spaltenden Fork in Gang zu setzen.

Nö überhaupt nich.
Dass eine dezentrale Plattform nicht wirklich dezentral ist, ist nicht wichtig genug.

Inwiefern willst du denn durch einen Fork die Plattform dezentraler machen? Und wäre etwas mehr Dezentralität es wert zu riskieren, dass die Chain sich spaltet? Imo nicht.

Genau deswegen sind auch die besten Köpfe unter den Steemianern schon wieder weg.

Scheiß auf Stinc's Einfluss so lange ICH REICH WERDEEEE, WHOOOHOO

Viel Spaß

Absolutely. There are many ways tron could benefit that would not make for a healthy platform and he has the resources and following to go through with it.

But I’m just here for the ride, hoping for the best. That was a short pump...

Now I get it, yeah there would be some unknowns for sure.
