RE: Sad State of Affairs at Steemit. How Greed and Lust for Power Corrupts All.

in #umm5 years ago

You keep conflating Steem with Steemit. There is a big difference between the two.

Justin colluded with exchanges to vote in witnesses using other peoples steem tokens that they cannot withdraw anymore.

Justin does not have a good reputation in the cryptosphere so we dont trust where he is going with this. The ninja-mined stake was always a problem here so we found a solution that doesnt involve destroying someones steem.

Witnesses created a brand new blockchain. Justin Sun can keep his steem tokens and do what he wants with them. We never stole anything from him and if you want to stay here, be my guest. Many of us have invested thousands of dollars into this and don't want to see it ruined.

Anybody can create a hardfork if they want. The market decides if it's valuable. Many steem forks have happened over the years and none of them were successful because the market decides its not worth investing money. Now that we have dozens of developers and the best talent on Hive, it might become more successful or it might not.

I was initially against a hardfork because I don't want to see this community divided and risk my money getting destroyed. But after seeing Justin lie all the time, I knew this place wasn't gonna end well. Its easy for someone like you to talk about others being greedy when you don't have any skin in the game.

If you wanna stick around, thats up to you. How's China these days?

Sort:  

Whatever Justin Sun did, was only capable because the blockchain code allowed it. Don't get caught up in semantics "steem/steemit. you know what I mean. My point is the code was never broken to get him into power, he folled the rules, and understood it better than 99% of users.
