Hilarious: Justin Sun calls the cops over ‘stolen’ Steem funds

There's a big loss of trust in Steemit have the hostile takeover and theft of the top 20 accounts and their Steem Power by Justin Sun.

Over $5 million worth of stolen Steem was sent to a new account @community321 which was created 12 days ago. A few hours ago, it looks like hackers have taken over that account and posted an iconic image of Robin Hood.

Go read here.

Justin Sun, the wealthy CEO of the TRON Foundation, has called the cops on those responsible for splitting from his newly-bought blockchain-based social network, Steem.

In March, those unhappy with his rule forked the Steem blockchain to form a new one, Hive. Sun has now retaliated and used his immense power on the network to vote in favor of a hard fork that takes around $5 million worth of funds out of the defectors’ wallets. It takes place today.

He’s also called up the law:

“We are working w/ law enforcement & will take actions to get our funds back! We have lots of sympathy for all Steem witnesses who has suffered the same at the hands of the Hive witnesses,” he wrote today.

Jameson Lopp notes
Witness the rise of crypto anarchy! The most impressive part of this story is not the Proof of Stake power play by Sun. It's that those who dissented exited the network they considered compromised and created one that was EVEN MORE VALUABLE.

HILARIOUSLY good karma.
