No need for any "rebellion".

All we need, including/especially Justin Sun, is to be up front and open about everything.

I mean, if he can't see what people here thought of Ned before and especially now, then all the money in this world won't make any difference.

Seriously, who has what/more to lose?

Let's think about it:

A person who has $20 million (guestimate) of Steem tokens

or

Those people who have the knowledge and experience in the social networking + blockchain tech field?

I dare say his acquisition of those 70+ million Steem tokens and purchase of Steemit Inc. are worthless without the community.

Getting a bunch of individuals who only talk about the tokens is not what represents the real value of Steem.

In fact, those people are already everywhere.

If he wanted them, he could have simply done a free airdrop of some subtoken (shitcoin) and put up a UI that is available for $20 on the open market.

I highly doubt that is what $20 million USD was spent on.

or was it?

idk,

We'll see.
