RE: Hanes purchases Steemit Inc
It was a decision to guard the integrity of the chain and the project, in the face of numerous instances where the perpetrators of the 22.5 hack had disclosed plans to dissolve steem. It being arbitrary or otherwise doesn't matter, all that matters is that it was done in good faith and with the overwhelming support of the community, and as others pointed out was a temporary measure brought on directly by such communications that sought to dissolve steem.
It just pissed off a billionaire from my perspective.
O I see, so they should have went along with his plans to dissolve steem, because billionaires?
Heck, in your world it wasn't smart to do anything that would piss him off, so if that means losing all you've invested because he wants to kill the project, well, might as well not do anything that would piss him off, like hampering his plans.
It's probably been a while since you could stand up straight seeing as your backbone is absent..
Heck, no. My point; which seems to have been missed; is that v. 22.2 achieved nothing, nothing and more nothing EXCEPT to piss off a billionaire.
Let that sink in.
Some people would bend over backwards to let others trample all over them, and it's no surprise that they feel very strongly when others don't gladly lay down to be someone's rug, to them tp stand up for yourself is similar to an exercise in futility or worse, an insulting mockery.
We are in the position not just to have a fighting chance, but to be a significant force where historically this would have been "solved" with money before anyone would even know. The man with the money is not in need of empathy. This is justice in its purest, and we should deal with it apropriately. Not bending over as a community.
Let what sink in, exactly?
That it's now possible to successfully go against people with a lot of money and have them beg for mercy instead of having the unlimited power they used to have.
LOL. Yes this should be very interesting to see how things play out.
Basically this is exactly why we have P2P tech right? This will prove why we do this in the first place...
Also I'm very curious about how hive.io will be doing soon!
LOL. Yes this should be
Very interesting to
See how things play out.
