Dear Ms. @michelletrajeskihanes, Are you planning an atomic sock swap? I have some fruit of the loom in my drawer.

How about an old fashioned sock hop, school dance? We need to celebrate!

I thought for a moment it was real lol at this point I wouldn’t be surprised

DYING!! 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah I will buy into all smts and use it as a risc free pension fund. This will go up! Whay to the moon!! That's why binance has unfrozen their 12 million tron to put it in steem yeah baby! Come to papa!

It means that the remedy was worse than the disease @aggroed. All the best for this platform.

This news made me happier!

I feel like I've been socked in the face, completely blinded sided by this amazing news

This post received a downvote from me. Not because it was not humorous and that we all don't need a laugh now and again but because this is the second post to make mockery out of a serious situation which this witness played a large part in creating by the installation of HF22.2.

Instead of this tomfoolery perhaps real solutions could be put forward and fences mended instead of mockery of an individual who's culture holds dear the saving of face. Your leadership (or lack of) on this issue is very dissapointing to me @aggroed.

It is even always the same mockery over and over again and again. But it might does fit to the progress of finding solutions, same mockery - same progress (Nothing new) :/ Can't wait for the next "He said steemy" post.

> played a large part in creating by the installation of HF22.2.

I don't know that we can really say that. I mean, all of these accounts were created before the soft fork was implemented. I think the plan went off too smoothly to not have been in the works before the SF took place. The SF was implemented with the publicly stated goal of being a temporary measure and by my understanding reversible by simply putting a ' in a few lines of code.

HF22.2 was installed yet nothing, nothing and more nothing has transpired. HF22.5 has neutured the HF22.2 account restricrions. HF22.2 was simply an escollator. Reminds me of Russia Gate - The Blockchain Edition.

True. I think you have to take into account the amount of interaction created to vote in the witnesses to create a stalemate. Thus nothing.

There is definitely not a single point of escalation in this. There are multiple and ignoring some points doesn't make the other points more severe. While 22.2 could be considered an escalation, it had a public stated goal and rationale of being temporary. There could have been some communication from Justin's side, but there wasn't.
- That failure to communicate was a point of escalation.
- The deceiving of exchanges to power up was an escalation.
- The takeover was an escalation.
- HF 22.5 was a de-escalation (with the caveat that it was done under a central authority).
- Calling the fork the work of hackers was escalation
- Demanding a change in powerdown time is escalation

This is all from after 22.2. There were other escalations beforehand including:

• failure to answer requests for communications
• Announcement that Steem will move to Tron
• The use of Genesis coins for Tron super Rep voting

All of those factor into the current situation.

>While 22.2 could be considered an escalation...

It broke the trust of the Chain by individuals restricting account options on specific accounts, as opposed to a universal change, like no powering down for anyone.

It was an escalation by witnesses taking arbitrary decisions against specific accounts. There is EOS for that kind of shit.

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 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 just pissed off a billionaire from my perspective.

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 that sink in.

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.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

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!

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..

>O I see, so they should have went along with his plans to dissolve steem, because billionaires?

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.

You're saying it wasn't enough, but that's because it was a temporary measure that clearly stopped the seamless transitioning to tron, and in that regard it was more than enough. You aren't against the community consensus, you simply think that the community consensus was from a bunch of bitches that bend over for the billionaire dick, right?

Nope. If the trust of the chain was to be broken, as to me v. 22.2 is considered to be, then go all in. Not a rebranding but get a couple of exchanges to run a 22.4fuckyouCAPITALIST fork which had @null|Mr. Sun in the code. Pay the exchanges in BTC to recreate the chain. They sure as shit would have for BTC. Then STEEM would have been saved.

• V. 22.2 did not save STEEM.

• HIVE is not saving STEEM.

Now there will be most of Hive that will say that the community is saved. Well that may be. But much was lost that may never be regained. Google's indexing just for one. A conscious community effort must be undertaken to fix this one. It could be helped a great deal by redirecting one's blog postings on STEEM to the copy on HIVE. Not 100% sure on that. Have not checked if redirects work on STEEM as well.

Steem is dead, nothing will change that. Steem lives on as hive, and nothing will change that either. Your "suggestion" amounts to utter incoherent rambling, nothing more. This is much bigger than Alexa ranks and Google adsense.

Baah, humbug. 😎

Maybe we should start removing votes from witness who do not show any representation of the population

>Maybe we should start removing votes from witness who do not show any representation of the population

Already started with my @aggroed support. Came in with the 18 free witness votes which was withdrawn support for those witnesses who inatalled HF22.2 from those that had my support. @aggroed is the first for me to say, "fuck it", this is not a case of the lesser of two evils but the circling of the wagons (Boer War referrence) around those that will make the needed changes to further decentralize DPoS, in my opinion.

Allow me to put forward my strong endorsement of @timcliff as witness. The only member of the pre-22.2 consensus witnesses to not install it.

His skills as a blockchain Dev are beyond reproach.

Tim's self interests are a passion for blockchain technology.

already have Tim Voted when he re-activated his witness

not that my tiny accumulated vote make much difference

>not that my tiny accumulated vote make much difference

If votes/likes/upvotes mean nothing how is FB paying the server costs? 😎

You are telling the witness who has your support that you believe they will move, at least some version, of STEEM DPoS forward in a greater decentralized form and that we will follow where that takes them.

Should we ever get past the present drama there will be 18 open witness votes of mine to re-assign.

The funny part is that he don't understand why his witnesse spot is falling.

Or doesn't care. More fun than table top RPGs! ⚂⚃⚄

He cares and he launched a promo campaign.

Lol, get over yourself.

Yep, exactly this. You guys caused this mess with your actions. Own it and get this thing straightened out before it's too late. Do what is good for steem instead of just whining that you are not in the top 20 any longer. The more you do stuff like this, the more it looks like your soft fork was really just to keep yourself entrenched at the top as opposed to doing what is actually best for steem as a whole.

Dude. This was satire. If we can't laugh at ourselves, we're not learning.

>If we can't laugh at ourselves, we're not learning

Maybe with a stand up sock puppet account. Yet this is the account which Mr. Sun will see presented in any town halls or what-have-you. So long as he is out of the top 20 perhaps it is not as big of a concern. Yet he has been in and out since the TRON drama. This is my opinion only. My apologies if it has brought rain to your chuckling. ✌️😎

Well, it is kind of ridiculous you're attempting to poke this guy with a stick and say "Do something already!" Any time I go looking for facts I find these people talking and attempting to straighten things out. Just last night they had a bit of a talk with some David Roebuck guy I never heard of and he seems reasonable.

Don't you think it would be far more dishonest and two faced if aggroed here was using an alt account to troll? It's satire. There's nothing to be ashamed of. I'm certain these Tron people realize there's plenty here to joke about. Should we all just be lighting torches, grabbing picthforks, and being obnoxiously angry over things that take time and patience to figure out? In other words, should I be acting like you right now?

(Zing. Just messing with you.)

You are a blockchain advocate, yet don’t see the significance of soft fork 0.22.2? Even after 0.22.5 proved their concerns were right?

Don’t let Justin’s incompetence cloud your judgement. I am glad witnesses acted the way they did. They are there to protect the chain. That is exactly what they did.

Please explain how HF22.2 did anything other than piss off an egotistical rich kid?

I won’t bore you with my explanation. You probably made up your mind already. You may find this post more interesting than anything I could say:

https://steempeak.com/steem/@v4vapid/method-to-the-madness-vulture-capitalism-comes-to-the-blockchain

That is an interesting link. Granted there was some skimming on my part, and just so you know it does not please me that @ned sold STINC to Mr. Sun, but the only reference of what at least v. 22.2 was intended to do (let alone actually achieve) that could be found was the following:

>These actions were taken to protect the Steem blockchain as attempts to communicate with Steem's new overlords were ignored for a considerable amount of time.

Well that didn't work out so well. So, again, allow me to ask if you think anything was achieved by the installation of v. 22.2?

The intentions seem clear yet they say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions.

The intentions of the Softfork were achieved and really quickly. When @softfork222 was announced, most of us were caught off guard. My initial reaction was critical of the actions. Below is my first reaction and you can see more of my comments of in @softfork222 announcement page.

[IMAGE: https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/geekgirl/AkqPjqyd-comment.png]

It is after more research and interactions I came to realizing it was the best thing witnesses could have done to protect the chain. It being a softfork the community/stakeholders could easily vote out those witnesses if they didn't like the actions. Quite the opposite happened. The community voted @timcliff out of consensus, since he wasn't running 0.22.2.

Moreover if you look at the SF announcement pages you will see 1110 upvotes with rewards of $193. That just shows the sentiment and reaction to the news.

To answer your question, what SF intended worked. I didn't even take hours for @justinsuntsteemit make this post:

https://steempeak.com/steemit/@justinsunsteemit/open-letter-to-steem-community

The post was positive, Justin didn't overreact and was willing to open up communication channels and talk to the community and witnesses. That is what everybody wanted. The community loved his response. That post received 1636 upvotes with rewards $247.42. Everybody was happy with how things were developing, there wasn't anything for anybody to worry about. If he followed through with what he planned in the post and didn't take hostile actions, we all would be celebrating today, his funds would be unfrozen, Steem heading to a brighter future.

Of course, what we all underestimated and didn't see coming were two things: how unstable Justin's decision making is, and most importantly how corrupt exchanges (binance, huobi, and poloniex) are. If exchanges didn't collude we wouldn't be in this situation.

Thanks for the longer reply. It did not bore me in the least. 😎

My original reaction to v. 22.2 was negative as well. It has remained so as it seemed to have achieved nothing in my opinion.

The trust of the chain has been broken and a rich bully is loose with enough stake to remind us of the weaknesses of DPoS. It is hard to imagine anything but a chain hard fork to resolve this issue and allow the space to take things back to the drawing boards. The OpenSeed and OpenLink projects sound interesting as explained by @andrarchy. Perhaps that will develop into something positive for DPoS because the pre-mined ninja stake of STINC has broken this kick at the can.

Initiated power down on this account tonight.

@null|Mr. Sun

✌️😎

Give 'em hell!
Maybe we will get action we should've had since the eip.
The iron is hot, boys!
Time to strike it, IMO.

I don't agree. If we are not allowed to defend ourselves from a clear takeover, what can we do? Why do you think it was wrong in the first place? If we didn't do anything, the chain would no longer be ours. Justin's actions clearly show he didn't have good intentions from the start.

Also, if what our witnesses did was illegal, why did Justin not just sue them as they were all well known, instead of attempting a clearly illegal takeover of the whole blockchain, and then blaming "hackers". Now he has not only lost the chance to use the law to his advantage, but any good will that might have been to his advantage on winning the hearts of the users (the lifeblood) of the blockchain.

>Why do you think it was wrong in the first place?

Because it was an arbitrary restrictions of options to specific accounts. If they want to stop STINC accounts from voting for witnesses then stop everyone from voting for witnesses. If they does not pass the stink test then we should not have done it for specific accounts. There is EOS for that kind of shit.

Blocking everyone from voting is also the same as a coup.

I don't think the voting system is necessarily the best it could be, so yes, something should be done about it. But as long as there is a stalemate, nothing can be done.

A fork maybe.

But can we keep the name "Steem"? That's the question I have been pondering about. Did Justin buy the name?

>Blocking everyone from voting is also the same as a coup.

That was my point with such an extreme example; yet in true decentrslized DPoS what is good for the goose should be good for the gander. There were probably other universal solutions that would have been just as productive as HF22.2 yet not as drastic as my example. If not then a genuine threat of a chain fork should have been presented to Mr. Sun which would be triggered if he used his Ninja Stake in governance; which in fact he did.

The Ninja Mined stake of STINC seems to have been a flaw in the project which only a chain fork can fix.

@null|Mr. Sun

P.S. Keeping the name STEEM will depend on the exchanges and if they will install the chain forked version. Traditionally they have not.

I still don't understand why Justin didn't just sue the witnesses instead of making a blatantly illegal move himself.

Do you know how many jurisdictions you would need to sue in? 😆

We have been shown twice now that on the DPoS blockchain that possession is ten tenths of the law.

He would have the money though. Were I a businessman of his caliber I wouldn't consider that a problem.

@novacadian dear sir, don't forget that @aggroed is one of founder of steemmonsters and steem-engine.

Made the same move some days ago; theren is a broad distinct line between humorous and simply stupid bitchy.

Once I figured out that Hanes is synonymous with socks in USA I got the joke 😂😂😂😂

OMG, that was funny.

I was like wait...what? Why...? Then I saw the socks. That shit made me lol.

Am still trying to figure out the difference between "improper sexual harassment" and "proper" sexual harassment. 😉

Wow you guys are a bit stuck aren't you? @novacadian, @thehive, @oldtimer you need to get over yourselves. It is labeled satire for one and now you are saying because a witness has a sense of humor that it's wrong? WTF if it were some lame appic or actifit post then yeah I can see it but isn't creativity what we're after here?

Maybe I should go see if that is what you all post on? You are now trying to tell someone what they can or can't write on? What is wrong with you?

Funny I rarely downvote. The ones that NEED to be downvoted are let go. Personally I don't think anyone new to the platform should have their post at a payout of $46.00 that is ridiculous. If I were to downvote it because of how I feel then I would be the one in the wrong or the bad guy and be retaliated against.

I think you totally missed what was said

Maybe if half of the effort was put into solutions, we would be much further ahead
there is also many instance were trending is a joke.

What's wrong with having humor on trending? Comedy sells out stadiums. Do we have to sit here and be bored to death with essays about ducks and how they quack all day?

Absolutely nothing

Exactly!

Could you say that to Justin?

The witness are too scared to let me talk with @Justinsunsteemit

Are they? Or are you just not willing to help?

Justin is the problem. He never did listen to anything that was said. He did sound like he was agreeing and behaving as if everything was mutually understood, but as soon as the meetings were over, he started berating the witnesses, the community, and doubled down on the bot witnesses. (As in clearly attempting a coup.)

He had absolutely no intention of giving in at any point in time. Before anything happened, he didn't answer any queries of clarification when he had repeatedly for 10 days advertised how he was going to "migrate all steem dapps" into Tron, and do tokenswaps. Almost as if he didn't even care there is a community behind the Steem blockchain, and that he didn't actually buy the blockchain, but only a dapp.

The community did care, and witnesses delivered.

What Justin did after was a clear indication that a takeover was his intention all along.

okay closed mind your side, you have your opinion I have mine, Let's not create drama all over the bloody chain, accept others think different things to you.

Tell ye what I will remove all my vote from all the previous witness, e just want to keep attacking me,

And fuk the help ye already had

give it a bloody rest

I see You don't want to believe me.

Let me say this one thing if nothing else... I have never met Justin. But I have met our witnesses, and I trust them. I can not say the same about Justin. Justin does not care about you or me, or our community. He cares about one thing and one thing only, money. Our witnesses are the only thing that has prevented him from breaking our blockchain with his planned 3-7 day powerdown and no downvotes hardfork.

I am not attacking You, I am just concerned about the community. But You clearly do not care about the Steem community, at all. If you are not happy with Steem, maybe you should just go Tron then.

Let me say this.

The only reason all this shit happened is because the witness refused to hear other opinion about the election of witness for over 18 month.

You can put blame on anyone you want. But the top witness catered for their own needs and disregarded the needs of the chain for years

Ok, go to Tron then. Your KYC idea sucks anyway.

On Tron you have no democracy, not even anything close to what we have on Steem. Justin can just override any decisions on a whim by using the Exchanges' votes.

Shows how small your mind actually is.
And you said you were not on an attack,

You just make a joke of yourself with your contradictions

Read the edit.

read what I said first, I never mention nothing about going anywhere,

I said this:

On Tron you have no democracy, not even anything close to what we have on Steem. Justin can just override any decisions on a whim by using the Exchanges' votes.

You don't get it?

He is the only one who decides. Here we at least have 20 witnesses.

In everything I have said anywhere, I have only talked about Steemit and moving forward for progress

What's your idea of progress? Give in to Justin's bot witnesses?

You have no idea on what Justin is about do you?

He wants to takeover, and control the blockchain, and push hardforks that break Steem.

Did you not even check out what his plans were?

I have no interest in Justin

Well you better not play in his team then.

Making threats at me?

As if.

You can't play in both teams. If you play in Justin's team you will lose everyone the Steem blockchain. That's the same as shooting yourself in the foot.

Some people are on neither team, because they didn't like the old team and they aren't much of a fan of the new one.

There is more than the light and the dark side of the Force, there is also magenta.

Only a Sith deals in absolutes...

The problem is, that if you don't support the community against Justin, you are making so much easier for him to take over, thus in the end it doesn't mean anything if you have your own opinions about things. You'll end up losing along everyone else.

I can assure you he doesn't care about your personal demands, but he will gladly use you to break down the social cohesion of the Steem community, and take over.

So, not helping the community is really playing in Justins corner and akin to pissing in your own cereal.

Stop calling it the "community" because it is not. Steem is currently designed as a plutocracy and for quite some time the vast majority of people disliked things and still lost in decision making. I do not consider the witnesses that put in HF22 "the community" and I won't support them. Both sides can just keep buying STEEM to add votes for themselves and I'm happily selling to them on exchanges in this turf war and it is improving buy pressure.

Yep, you are the one who can stay with Justin's fork.

Dude, I'd own tokens on both. That is how forks go. its amazing that you don't know that.

Aren't you the greedy one. I was talking about the community. You are the one going on about money.

If you cared about something other than money, like censorship-resistant blogging, you'd be way more into IPFS. You either are very uneducated about this subject or you're full of shit. Steem's consensus is decided by 17 individuals, there are corporate boards of directors more decentralized than that. The US Senate is WAY more decentralized than that...

I have been complaining about DPoS, along with many other people in the blockchain world for years. Only now, that Justin bought up our plutocracy and is doing things with DPoS that you all dislike, suddenly, a lot of people, including consensus witnesses like Luke Stokes are beginning to get the picture.

I have had the guts to speak out against the terrible, very possibly illegal behavior going on in Steem long before Justin came. Justin is not the start of the problem, really, the corrupt people here hate that their crony capitalism is being hijacked while there's still water in the well. I spoke out against the shameful actions of the Burnpost project. I called out the hypocrisy of Steemcleaners, Burnpost, SBDpotato and other initiatives that make money off spam and steal from the author pool but go after others that make money off spam too.

So yeah, I won't take sides with bad guys because the other guys might possibly be worse bad guys.

You are so boring. You keep using the blockchain while you clearly hate it. Make your own fork if you don't like it. Nagging only makes others resent you.

If you want to help, do it constructively, don't try splinter and kill the community.

Your responses are so stupid... Just stop while you're behind.

I'll say whatever positive or negative thing I want. I criticize something when I want to make it better. If you don't like the things I say fucking block me, because I won't do a damn thing you demand of me.

Do you think you know me better than I know myself?

Maybe you should take your own advice first.

I already said he doesn't care about you. If Justin wins, Steem loses. (That includes you.)

Nothing is about justin

Think much bigger,
Bigger than the pyramids

Ok, fuck it. I see that you don't care about the current situation, or anything. You just want to destroy the whole blockchain.

"Bigger than pyramids", you are delusional.

Your demands mean nothing if Justin wins.

>I see that you don't care about the current situation...

My feeling is that both @thehive and myself care passionately. We are not looking for symbolic reactions but true solutions of this dilemma.

@thehive seems to be suggesting that nothing has changed in the governance of STEEM to stop another Justin Sun from performing a hostile take over. HF22.2 did nothing but piss off a billionaire. We are no safer from a hostile majority stake take over than we were before @ned sold us down river.

Ask yourself why Witness Voter Retention has not been changed in 4 years? Why has STINC's Ninja Mined Stake not been dealt with in 4 years?

Have the top 20 witnesses (minus @timcliff) been too busy protecting us or protecting their own interests? Luckily, for the vast majority of Steemians, many times those interests intersect. On some very important issues they do not.

I was more saying this exact situation was brought to the attention of those in governance position a long time ago. They done nothing about it.

With that a concentration of time has been spent on HF rather than discussing possibly ways to move forward.

Thanks for clarifying. 😎👍

That may be true, but dividing the community on the issue now, as we are under attack is NOT GOING TO HELP!

We will rethink the governance once we have regained control of the blockchain back. It would mean a suicide to start making these demands right now. Bloody amazing dumbfuckery to think we are going to get anywhere if we were to stop voting for the witnesses now and let Justin just take over.

The blockchain is doomed if we start infighting and give up our defenses.

If Mr. Sun does not back this down a hard chain fork seems inevitable and the normal solution in such blockchain stand offs.

Don't you think that is a problem for the next day, for the period when Justin has been defeated, instead of bickering about it now?

They may not have been changed in the last 4 years, but I guess this has been a wakeup call to everyone. It still doesn't mean infighting is going to help now that the takeover is already underway.

I mean how on earth do you think making these demands right now is going to save Steem at any stretch if you are only creating a rift in the community now at the face of adversity?

read up through your comments to me, You do not think you are a part of causing divide when you dictate what I should and should not do, when you tell me what I should and should not think, When your mind form opinions of what my mind thinks when you do not understand what I am saying.

You are the one dictating, you are the one trying to let Justin take over. How much is he paying you?

What did I tell you you should do, show me when I told anyone what to do.
I shared opinion. My opinion does not agree with the way witness perform in their assumed position of negotiation without qualification to do so.

I have told you in a previous comment, I have no interest in Justin Sun at all. You have dome nothing more then follow me to promote your own ego and your own ambition to bring disruption. You have shown no effort in anyway to understand an opinion that differs to yours.

> What did I tell you you should do, show me when I told anyone what to do.
I shared opinion. My opinion does not agree with the way witness perform in their assumed position of negotiation without qualification to do so.

What in earth would you have had them do? Give the blockchain to Justin?

You are stupid, you know.

> I have told you in a previous comment, I have no interest in Justin Sun at all.

Still you are of the position, that something should have been done differently. You know, it would have not helped. He would have done the same. You don't care, but a whole lot of the rest of us don't want the blockchain to fall in his greedy hands.

> You have shown no effort in anyway to understand an opinion that differs to yours.

We don't have the luxury to fight about this. What is done, is done, and Justin is still at it. If you have ANY means to win this fight, you should probably come up with them now, because otherwise this chat is over.

You are the only one fighting, I have blocked you

Ok. I don't care. You do you then. It's not like you ever listened.

Ok. I don't care.
You do you then. It's not like

The thing is, @gamer00 that nothing has changed. HF22.5 undid HF22.2. Mr. Sun is now coaxing card board cut outs instead of sock puppets with such appeasers as @triple.aaa. You cannot defeat a billionaire in a stake based game if they are willing to go all in.

A hard chain fork is the logical direction. It gives us another kick at the can and the options to @null|Mr. Sun .

You are saying you won't be helping the community, and are willing to sell the blockchain to Justin, unless the witnesses do what you want. You are the one with the demands. You are the problem.

No I did not say that, Your lack of willingness to accept someone else will not follow like a sheep what others say has brought that to your mind. nothing that I have said.

You nor no one else dictates what I say. You are the one has a problem with me, Notice Your problem not mine.

Even just last night, I was on voice with Aggroed in his show. He does not hold my opinion against me but actually welcomes some opinion that does not just follow him blindly, it is your opinion and ambition to cause a fight that divides the community.

Oh, so you have more power than me... Good for you.

>You are saying you won't be helping the community, and are willing to sell the blockchain to Justin, unless the witnesses do what you want. You are the one with the demands. You are the problem.

In my opinion the blockchain is a database and the community are people. Mr. Sun did not purchase the community.

What mister @thehive originally said in this thread was something along the lines of "we must appease mr. Sun". I challenged him because that's not something Justin Sun will ever even listen to.

@Thehive did not mention forking as an option. Not once. All he did was be vague about his point.

I understand forking may be the only choice in the long run. But if it is possible to fight Justin, we should still do that.

Although. I did have an interesting conversation with another steemian about the takeover, and he basically said: "Justin is too intelligent. He must have thought this through before he took over. He will get his way sooner or later."

What I now fear is, Justin has a clear game plan. He doesn't really appear to be after the community. Maybe what he really wants is the blockchain, the technology behind Steem, along with our content, to repopulate with his Tronglodytes. And maybe migrate some Steemians that are "fed up" with the original Steem, or how it was governed. (Maybe he even convinced most of the Korean community and others.)

Imagine which one will win. A "blogchain" with a few resurgents from the old Steem, or the one with some ex-steemians AND his already existing Tron community. Add DLive, SMT's and atomic swaps to the pot, and you will have a Steem killer. That's what I think Justin is after, the technology itself. If he will also get the name "Steem", all the better for him.

Do you really still think we have a chance if he wins?

It is slim chance if any...

The only game plan for us is to be quick, to at least get the name "Steem" to stay with us, and for the love of all that's good, finish the SMT's, and get rid of the vulnerabilities in governing and guarding the blockchain. We should also seek allies from other blockchains to maybe start the development for the atomic swaps between some of them.

To win, we need to think ahead, further than where Justins goals lie.

Trending is a frign joke. I saw a shitty 28 second video of llamas worth 16 dollars. Like really? That's what these self-proclaimed curators want to vote on?

And yes, even solutions are getting flagged in ignorance. They don't want to move forward. they just want their money 'back'.

I asked for the link you never gave it

I'm definitely not telling anyone what to post. I don't know how did you get that impression. But I will always express my opinion.
The wheels are falling off this wagon and joking and escalating will not help to find common ground or some kind of solution.

So when can we expect these socks in stores? Some people get cold feet and block everyone on Twitter. Seems like they could use a good pair.

Man you got with the clickbait title :(

The exciment was such, I didn't even read it, lol. (had to delete my tweet)

This one was defective. I'd like my money back.

defective? recycled!

What was it before?

a tree?

A tree?! What kind of sorcery is this! One cannot simply flatten a tree and roll it up.

Too many lie news from @aggroed.
IDK yet it it's true or not.

A little satire here and there never hurt anyone ;)

🤣lulzies

after all the fuckery recently this made my week, thank you.

> When asked what's next Hanes and Justin said they were planning on releasing sock puppet NFTs to commemorate the historic sale and usher in the next era of Sock Puppet reign.

...and once done all that, HanesBrands Corporation jointly with its best allies and cronnies of the flourishing brandnew digital Crypto Sock Puppet Industry will hire immediately to James Maury Henson from beyond on the other side. To help us with the development, evolution and consolidation of the long awaited next blockchain iteration Muppets 3.0 true PoB technology that will takeover the world by storm in a jiffy.

This was a sick post!! Damn YOU
