A WHAT THE FUCK moment! That's what I had this morning when I turned on my lappy and saw all whats going on. You see, steemit has been always filled with drama but this past weeks... OH MY GOD!... let's say, I don't have enough popcorn to digest all this shit!
Yeah... that was exactly my reaction when I saw or top witnesses, the ones we voted for, were kicked down. Lots of people expected this after the soft fork, me included. To think Tron would be relax without moving a finger after what happened is very naive... to think the former (for the moment) top 20 witnesses won't do a thing is veeeeeery naive!
Let's see some of the things written in the post An Open Letter to the Community - HF22.5 click the link to read the whole thing.
Wait, you did what?!
transparency at all cause at least we know how witnesses think, they've been open about what they think all the time but we don't know new owner, we didn't voted for all the new witnesses and the community is not certainly being heard in all this.I've been in steem blockchain for almost 3 years, I'm still just a minnow and as a token holder, a steemian, a crypto lover and (I think everyone agrees with me in this one) all I want, all everyone wants is both sides to sit and talk and find a solution to all this. Maybe the sf the witnesses did was a bad idea, maybe not but centralizing a decentralized place, taking hostage the top witnesses spots, voting and downvoting stuff to have all the control and power is not the way to fix things. We all expect great things from this place, we all have things to loose and earn here, we all want this blockchain to succeed....
That's what I wrote 10 hours ago before steemit went down (the first time) after that lots of stuff happened... Like finding out exchange markets like Binance and Huobi took their users steem and used it to vote for the new witnesses. Many steemians, me included invaded tweeter to speak about all whats going on and all this "take over thing" was covered by some blogs, news portals like coindesk. It seems steemians stalking Binance ceo worked cause he said they're are going to remove the witnesses votes... I highly doubt they will do it before Steemit/Tron implement the new hardfork, tho...
No idea why that tweet looks so big...
How things gonna end? No idea! Several steem dapps are down as part of a strike. So be patient, keep an eye in whats going on, tell the world what you think about all this and support in tweeter all the people speaking for steem. Don't be scared or ashamed to ask Binace and Huobi to do the right thing and to remove their votes from witnesses, we as community, didn't voted!
This post will probably receive lots of dv's and I'm ok with it! I'm just another steemian speaking my mind while freedom of speech is still a thing here.
