Currently we have manged to not lose but with each day that passes our adversary in this just keeps pouring more money into the accounts that are being used to try to seize control of our community operated blockchain.

Keep in mind that every week that now passes will free up 1/13th of the frozen STEEM in at least two of the exchanges involved in the hostile take over. My guess is that much of it will find its way back to accounts to be used to vote against the sock puppet witneases.

The present state of The Chain could continue to exist for some time, in my opinion.
