Witness Voting is Absolutely Needed by Everyone
If you are not in the MSP discord and not looking at the Witness list you might not know what has been going on today.
Since this morning three of the REAL Top 20 Witnesses have been voted by the community back into the Top 20. It’s happening becauase we as a community have been coming together.
Justin Sun and The Tron Foundation orchestrated a takeover of the Steem chain yesterday morning. They had the collusion of three crypto exchanges — Binance, Huobi and Poloniex who used customer’s Steem holdings to power up on Steem and let Tron remove 20 witnesses to be replaced by 20 sock puppets being run of ONE server.
To get the details on that, you can read this post I put on Medium:
Anatomy of Justin Sun's Hostile Takeover of the Steem Blockchain
**So, why didn’t I post it on Steem? **The Tron Foundation and the exchanges post over there and this posted there gets it out of the Steem bubble. I also shared on other platforms.
We Need You!
No matter your size, we need you to help out the community here. No matter your opinion about anyone in the top 20, we need to get them back in. Once the chain has been restored, move your votes where you want. The safety of the chain now is what matters.
I urge you to vote all those from 24-50. If you vote one, you can vote them all. We need four witnesses restored to the top 20 to block any attempts by Sun’s sock puppets to approve a hardfork the community doesn’t approve.
He’s a fact. If we can put one in, we can put 20 in by voting in blocks. Don’t hold back.
If you have funds on any of the exchanges named. I strongly suggest you withdraw it ASAP I will warn you thought, the steem they powered up is locked in for 13 weeks. So, put pressure on as they have a responsiblity to provide you with your funds when you withdraw.
Reminds me… have you got liquid steem? Power it up to add to your voting power.
