At https://steemd.com/witnesses, it says "99.21875% Participation" meaning that 99% of vested steem is already voting? That sounds too high to be true?
We either take this back over as a community now, or we will have to fork out. Let's get this done!
Yes! Either one. I agree the restoration of witnesses would be less disruptive, but ultimately if tensions are so deep a fork may be inevitable.
The participation is the percentage of witnesses who produced a block right now. Many (now-)backup witnesses stopped block production out of protest, so it's not always at 100%
Ah makes sense. The number I am more interested in is the percentage of vested steem that is voting for at least one witness.
