I think exchanges will list both STEEM and STEEM-TRON. If the majority of the Steem community wants to continue using the Steem blockchain, then I think STEEM could retain sufficient value. Ultimately, the exchanges will call STEEM whatever token has more usage and value.

While I agree that a large portion of users use steemit.com to interact with the Steem blockchain, the majority of large investors already use alternative explorers like Steempeak, Busy, or even Splinterlands. So I don't think controling a single domain gives Steemit Inc that much leverage.

Anyways, I'm concerned. I think we need more details. If it seems that the migration is not in the best interest of the community, then we need to make that clear to exchanges and other economic players and infrastructure providers. If the migration is contentious, I think the name Steem will stay with whatever chain has the most value and usage.
