Being realistic with human nature, especially someone who is used to exercising lots of power, it’s impossible to change the deeply ingrained nature like that!
A hard fork is the most realistic solution! Sorry to sound pessimistic!

Several of my acquaintances have been advisers to politicians,the rich and powerful. Corruptions are rampant because of greed! Very sad indeed!
Which is why we need to accommodate their greed-focused minds. If they understand one thing: it's money. If Sun pushes a hardfork on our chain that chain is no longer Steem, as it has zero community support. Sun thinks he needs to push a HF to make the banks solvent and get his ROI, but he doesn't realize that exactly the opposite will happen. It's mind boggling that he is so clueless about all this.
He said once in the beginning that the Tron community is very agreeable. Well, of course it is because Tron is a dictatorship. He hasn't dealt with a real decentralized community, yet.
