RE: Letter to @ned and @andrarchy - Ref @witnesspage
And I never knew you started Witness page - learn something new every day. It's a valuable service, so few Steemians understand Witnesses at all - and so many even long term members completely ignore the option to vote them. The easier it is to learn and understand the better - and keeping up with Witnesses is a sure way to get them interested and make an informed decision on who they wish to vote for.
Slightly hijacking this but I have been wondering over the last week what Steemit has in place should an account holder pass away and their family wish to reclaim the funds. While we can of course all leave our account login and active key in our wills with instructions - generally it's advised to regularly renew your keys and you can't keep sending updates.
